Local deployment?
I have a local project, call it DEV, and remote staging, STAGE. The thing is, I need to put changes to DEV in a local working copy of STAGE and then commit it via SVN. I'm not quite sure whether STAGE-LOCAL can be a working copy of STAGE and a repository for DEV as well, so I thought the easiest thing (rather than copying via the windows file manager window) would be to create a deployment.
I tried creating a local deployment and filled in all the information. The complaint coming back at me is that the target directory is not in the prjoect. My first thought is: isn't that the idea?

Ok wouldn't STAGE-LOCAL be a repo?
I'm not sure you can commit a repo to a repo in svn. Using Git, I'd just clone everything.
About you error.. I don't get it. Can you upload a picture?
Not on that system at the moment, but basically at the bottom of the mappings pane I get a yellow warning icon and a message telling me that the local path (c:\www\my_domain\staging) is outside of the project. It lets me save despite the warning, but will not show that deployment in the list when I click Upload
Seems very odd to me, given that the idea of deployment typically involves a destination outside of the project directory. I would think that a directory INSIDE the project directory would be the eyebrow-raiser.
Hi Jeff,


As I understand you are using Mounted Folder as a deployment method. If so (+ based on your description) I think you possibly made a mistake with folder paths. Below is an example of such Deployment configuration -- it will copy files from PROJECT_ROOT (which is E:\Projects\web\_idetest ) into another folder (which is E:\Projects\web\_samples ). Have a look at these pictures and compare with your setup.
That did it! I needed to use the mounted folder instead of local. Thanks!
Yeah, these names a bit misleading:
thanks, we plan to address this..
