The lead programmer today told me that he thinks he will have 25 different projects that will need hundreds of shared files between them. So my first ideals have gone out the window and I'm going to have to re-think what I'm going to do.

Date: Fri, 22 Jun 2001 08:45:16 +0100 How big are the projects and what are the build/release process for the shared files? If projects are relatively small and the sharing is fairly add-hoc then I'd go for a single project. However if you've got a separate release process for the shared files then you could go for separate repositories. Rather than checking out and building the shared files as part of the project, pull in a jar (or lib or whatever) from a release directory somewhere. In fact, I'd be tempted to have a separate build and release of the shared files anyway so you can try and define some clear interfaces between the projects and not end up with a tangle.

I have 4 programmers working on 2 different projects. All of them are using cvs off the server. I set up cvs originally as 2 different projects that each team could checkout. Now they tell me that they have "Shared" files that each project needs. How would you set it up? I thought I could set it up as one project with three different modules so they could checkout what they needed. Or Setup a third project with the shared files or is there another idea? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- If you have received this e-mail in error or wish to read our e-mail disclaimer statement and monitoring policy, please refer to http://www.drkw.com/disc/email/ or contact the sender. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
