Project layout with Subversion and static resources

Question

I'm working on a project which (as usual) contains source code and many static resources like images and generated files (for UI and l10n).

By now, everything is versioned with Subversion, but I think there must be a better way to store the static and generated files and link them on project deployment.

So, in your opinion which option the best?

• Keep everything together.
• Set a different and more appropriate storage (and probably versioning system) for every different kind of file.
• ...

Answer 1

Generated files I would svn:ignore. As long as they are automatically re-generated if they don't exist (or the generation process is easy to trigger) versioning the generated files would be just clutter.

Static files - images, style sheets, etc. - I would keep together, as long as they're not so heavy that they'll slow down the whole process. After all, they are a fixed part of your project.
