Loïc, what I was saying is that you will get in trouble when you upgrade web2py with this scenario... Migration from version of web2py to another is sometime not straigh as it should and you found yourself having to go back an forth between both version. In this situation you have sometime to make changes to your app that are not backward compatible so you can't have only one copy of your app in this case at least if you want to be flexible... What I do is to copy my repo from one web2py version to another. My setup is like this :
programmation/version_246/web2py/applications/myapp programmation/version_247/web2py/applications/myapp programmation/version_274/web2py/applications/myapp myapp in each of these web2py version is a clone from the precedent version of web2py. When I feel confortable that I will migrate definitly to a new version I leave the old app behind that sit. It is not that clean, but it had prove to be effective... And if I want to make cleanup I just have to delete the old web2py version tree to make space. Hope it help.
