Hmmm, I hadn't imagined anyone doing that... I suppose that is why they make hard drives so large these days!

Since you're the only one that bit, maybe I can get a little more hints from you! What about configuration objects in the database? Script to migrate them? Export utility? Other?

Cheers,

Why not have the third-party

Why not have the third-party libraries under version control? You might want the ability to roll back those as well.

Your method is very similar to mine for large web projects, and it works very well, IMO. I use CodeIgniter for a lot of my projects, and I have the config files as config.php.TEMPLATE in the repository, and then I create a local, unversioned copy for each checkout of the site (stage & production).
