Symfony development process

My development process involves using doctrine and svn. Documenting my development steps to make sure I can put this is some sort of build script in future. Creating svn directories svn mkdir -m "create default directories" http://svn.clients.rajatpandit.com/project-name/trunk http://svn.clients.rajatpandit.com/project-name/tags http://svn.clients.rajatpandit.com/project-name/branches Checkout these directories locally: svn co http://svn.clients.rajatpandit.com/project-name/ .

Hudson

Hudson monitors executions of repeated jobs, such as building a software project or jobs run by cron. Among those things, current Hudson focuses on the following two jobs:

1. Building/testing software projects continuously, just like CruiseControl or DamageControl. In a nutshell, Hudson provides an easy-to-use so-called continuous integration system, making it easier for developers to integrate changes to the project, and making it easier for users to obtain a fresh build. The automated, continuous build increases the productivity.
2. Monitoring executions of externally-run jobs, such as cron jobs and procmail jobs, even those that are run on a remote machine. For example, with cron, all you receive is regular e-mails that capture the output, and it is up to you to look at them diligently and notice when it broke. Hudson keeps those outputs and makes it easy for you to notice when something is wrong.
