[TYPO3-dev] Deploy localconf.php from test to live system

[Sebastian Fischer]

Hi Nico,

please dont get me wrong, but i dont get the point. Usualy settings made 
for the live system dont change that often. So there is no need to put 
this changes in localconf.php directly. And settings made on the 
development site need a manual review anyway.

Its not done with only changing in the install tool and then fire and 
forget it. And at the end of the day a release needs planing and not 
only copying. So beside activating and deactivating an extensions there 
is not that much that would change after a move to the enviroment file.

Greetings
Sebastian
