They should have the same files, but when I update something in /test/, and press a ‘Commit’ button I’d like it to roll across to the /live/ folder. That’s it. If it can track changes and when they were made that would be a nice bonus, but not essential.
Is there any software that will do this for me? I’m really struggling to find something nice and simple which will do this.
I’d use some kind of file synchronization program similar to rsync in linux or the synctoy freebie from microsoft. Sync’ing the directories won’t do version control for you but will do exactly what you described.
