[Moin-user] synchronising wikis

[Crelis Rammelt]

Thanks Roger!

If my colleague makes a new page, then Unison lets me see it in the  
revisions folder and synch it, perfect! However, if we both work off- 
line on the same wiki page and get together to synchronise our work,  
Unison will show a conflit. Then I found Submerge (http:// 
subcommander.tigris.org/), a GUI that compares the text itself inside  
the page, it shows the differences and lets you choose how to merge  
both versions.
Now I have to see how I could integrate both programmes (to make  
Unison pick out the conflicts and then use Submerge to show me the  
conflicts in the text itself). I am not a programmer, but its a  
challenge... Does anyone know about something that does this trick?

Could you tell me:
How do I delete old profiles in Unison?
I can not find the control file you mention. Any ideas where it could  
be in OS X?
What is times=true statement for?

Sorry for the basic questions. I'm new at all this.

Thanks again, Crelis
