I ran into a situation a while ago that I thought I would share with everyone. It has to deal with doing backups of repositories to share with coworkers, friends or project participants. You see, many times I will create a CD or DVD of a large project and disburse that to those that are working on a project. This helps to reduct the time, and server bandwidth, that is required to checkout a project for the very first time. Well, there was one situation where I had given a project CD to a coworker and after copying the checkout from the CD to his local, he was unable to do an update.
