gsync: one-way folder sync from a Graal server to a web server

Wouldn't doing it the other way around be much more useful so you could develop against a git repository that pushes commits to the server?

Not possible, the script folders can't be edited via script. I agree, though. What I'd really like to see is some version control implemented by Stefan. Branching would make debug servers a lot more useful.

Can't you funnel it through whatever the scripted RC uses? Having some dude be online for that doesn't seem like the worst limitation, but I'm probably missing something.

I don't think so. The scripted RC is using special sendtext/receivetext stuff that's limited to privileged (login) scripts. It would have to be implemented on Login and carry over to all the servers.

It really depends how much more secure the scripted RC was being made. I've seen some write code that would change their rights to full access. All that was needed was script access for them (a level NPC would've been enough) and somebody with full rights online.

This is no longer possible, although I did that in the past before as well. Scripted RC access is limited to privileged scripts (although it's still possible to send text via sendToRC clientside—I've used this to have globals disconnect people at random, etc.)
