CakePHP: Central cake core install with multiple apps
When developing on my system I like to use only one version of the core files. If I update the core files from svn it gets updated for all apps I’m working on. The way I’m using this is explained below: In my web-root I do an svn export of cake latest: cd /Users/mwesten/Sites svn [...]
