[cross-posting to user and dev list] A while back Anthony made some changes to the thrift library to make it easier for rebar to pull it in as a dependency. Unfortunately, the move to Git rendered that approach unworkable. For now I'm using filter-branch[1] to trim the repo to just the erlang library and pushing it to my own repo on GitHub[2] where I can use it as a dependency[3]. Has any thought been given to something that might be less kludgy while working with rebar?
Thanks, Joel 1: git filter-branch --subdirectory-filter lib/erl --tag-name-filter cat -f -- --all 2: https://github.com/JoelPM/libthrift-erl 3: {deps, [ {thrift, "1.0.0-dev", {git, "g...@github.com:JoelPM/libthrift-erl.git", {branch, "master"}}} ]}.
