[cvsnt] Sandbox within a Sandbox

Whoops!  I made a typo.

That alias should have been like this based on your example....

my_reusable_code        mywebsite/my_reusable_code
mywebsite               mywebsite  my_reusable_code

Yes you can!  I did this with aliases in the modules file.  I set them up 
like this (using your names as examples)

my_reusable_code        my_reusable_code
mywebsite               mywebsite  my_reusable_code

That way you can checkout the reusable code alone or everything by using 
the mywebsite alias.  Read over the module aliasing topic in the Essential 

CVS book by Jennifer Vesperman.  She does a nice job explaining modules & 
aliases.

Hi,

I have a module in CVS that contains code that I re-use in a number of 
different websites.  It resides in its own directory in a site's 
webtree, essentially self-contained. 

However, I want to be able to put the rest of a site under its own 
module as well.  Is it possible to accomplish having a sandbox within a 
sandbox, but are part of separate modules? 

To illustrate my point, here's an example site tree:

mywebsite/               (Module 1 in CVS)
+-- css/                 (Module 1)
+-- images/              (Module 1)
+-- my_reusable_code/    (Module 2 in CVS)
   +-- a_directory/      (Module 2)
   +-- my_php_script.php (Module 2)
+--default.php           (Module 1)

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Scotty
