[TYPO3-dev] splitting localconf

[Malte Jansen]

Hi Steffen, Hi @all!

There is now a small extension for automatic "switching"/overwritting 
the localconf.
You can just download a snapshot of the productive-server via FTP. Of 
course you can include the DB from the productive-server and import it 
on your dev-server.
So it's not possible to overwrite the productive-localconf.php with your 
  development-localconf.php.


EXT: maja_snapshot


Have fun some fun.
Cheers,

Malte
