How to setup SVN on live Magento site on Shared Hosting
I've got a live magento store running. I've determined that I definitely need to learn and use SVN immediately. My hosting (Hostgator) only supports the client, not repos with my package. I am going to be the only developer for the longevity of this owning this store (as far as I know). I do not want to pay a separate repo hosting fee and am ok with hosting a repo locally on my dev machine. In your experiences, what is my best plan of attack from this point? My goal is : 1) Be able to host a dev site (dev.domain.com). 2) Work locally on files and commit them to dev site for testing. 3) Publish dev files to live environment.  I've just began reading on basics of SVN so be gently with me :) Thanks!
