Version controlling without extra files

SVK allows you to create a working copy without "in-working-copy" administration files.

(.svn, CVS, etc.)

With FUSE you can mount your remote system over ssh.

SSHFS is the fuse plugin implementing this feature.

This great tools (SVK+FUSE) allows you to version control files in a remote machine, without installing or adding any files.

This is extremely useful if

• you haven't got permission for installing files

• your disk space is limited by disk and/or quota

• remote working copy will be a website's document root. Because you shouldn't hide administration files.
