I have recently installed subversion and nginx server on my machine (macbook pro). I'm fairly new to subversion as a whole and have just built a single webpage through this version control system, and now I'm faced with the task of testing it in all of the relatively modern web browsers. My biggest concern, as far as browser compatibilty is concerned, is Internet Explorer which, in order to test, I need Windows. I have Windows 7 installed on my mac via Virtual Box, and herein lies my problem.
I have not committed the new page I've just created to the repository, by the request of the client. Because of this, as far as I know, I have no URL to use for testing in IE Tester, Firefox for Windows, etc. How can I test this 1 page site's browser compatibility with without having committed any changes to the repository?
I can test it easily on my machine using MacOS, by just typing in local.*.org and it shows up. Again, windows is my issue. This project is due this Thursday (5/24/12), so you're help is greatly appreciated.
1) Developing and testing your web page is different from managing your web page source. In other words, testing web pages != using SVN.
2) If you've not actually been able to use SVN yet - and if your client has no preferences - then please try TortoiseSVN:
3) Please post back any specific questions you have about installing/using SVN.
