What's the purpose of the timestamped versions? (As opposed to just one version, or just running it from the .git checkout?)

- mrkurt 17y agoIt's much easier to rollback if something goes wrong. You have a "known" good copy and just change a symlink. We do the timestamped versions too, but our build process tars everything we need up and SCPs it over. Our release directories usually need to be transformed, though, and can't work as a simple git checkout.
