Notes for updating the website

Checking out the website code from Subversion

svn co https://sitracker.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/sitracker/branches/website sitwebsite

Copying the website files from Remote to Local directory

rsync -rv --rsh="ssh -l username" username,sitracker@web.sourceforge.net:/home/groups/s/si/sitracker/htdocs . 

Publishing the website from Local files to Remote web server. From the htdocs directory!

rsync -Crv --rsh="ssh -l username" ./ username,sitracker@web.sourceforge.net:/home/groups/s/si/sitracker/htdocs 

Updating News

News should be posted to the SiT Blog in the 'News' category. Then from your workstation, using the latest svn copy of the website you should run:

php fetchnews.php

This will update two files, news.html and release.html. Now publish the website to the remote server (see above) and commit your changes to svn.
