Developing with qooxdoo using git?

Question

Hi, i'm developing a little project with qooxdoo and want to share the source with some friends. should i just check in the whole project folder?

Answer 1

I guess the best approach would be to just check in your application and a little instruction file how to setup a qooxdoo SDK.

This way the developers can work with your application locally and using a qooxdoo SDK to work against.

As long as you do not need to work against the current trunk it's better to work with the latest SDK. See the download page at qooxdoo.org

Answer 2

Hello,

You should add the build and cache directories to the relevant .gitignore files (these directories they are the equivalent of 'object' files, so they should not be stored in version control unless you have a very good reason).

As for Qooxdoo itself, I usually place it next to the project so it's easy to duplicate the setup. I end up with something like this

/
    tmp
        qooxdoo-sdk-xxx
        my-app-directory
