Sharing a database while we work on local copies?
A friend and me are working on a webapp. We’re using git so each of us has a local copy of the app. But the problem is the database. We want to be able to see the latest changes the other person made. From what I understand, we have two options:
I have a library and several small programs that use it: how should I structure my git repositories?
I have some code that uses a library that I and others frequently modify (usually only by adding functions and methods). We each keep a local fork of the library for our own use.
Why not commit unresolved changes?
In a traditional VCS, I can understand why you would not commit unresolved files because you could break the build. However, I don’t understand why you shouldn’t commit unresolved files in a DVCS (some of them will actually prevent you from committing the files).
Useful git commit messages for merged branches
As a follow-up to this question:
git changing head not reflected on co-dev’s branch
Basically, we undid history. I know this is bad, and I am already committed to avoiding this at all costs in the future, but what is done is done.
Is Perforce as good at merging as DVCSs?
I’ve heard that Perforce is very good at merging, I’m guessing this has to do with that it tracks changes in the form of changelists where you can add differences across several files in a single blow. I think this implies Perforce gathers more metadata and therefore has more information to do smarter merging (at least smarter than Subversion, being Perforce centralized).
What’s the best way to manage reusable classes/libraries separately?
When coding, I naturally often come up with classes or a set of classes with a high reusability. I’m looking for an easy, straight-forward way to work on them separately.
I’d like to be able to easily integrate them into any project; it also should be possible to switch to a different version with as few commands as possible.
