Why would you allow that to happen?
I don't think there is any part of my little software empire that is dependant on code for which I don't have the source or underlying .dll checked into source control.
It's part of your project. You absolutely need a copy of it.
- antonkm 9y agoI take it you're replying to me? My little software empire also keep local copies, that kind of defeats the purpose of using git for teamwork or package management to keep dependencies in check. These are building blocks in a normal dev environment, and it would take me massive amounts of time to manage everything on my own. The local copies are fragile and not as easily shared.
- jasonkester 9y agoYou've lost me. Why would it take more time to check in your dependencies and have the rest of your team get them out of source control? All the package manager would do would be to download them off the internet to the same location. Might as well only have one guy do that once and be done with it. You need to archive them somewhere anyway (to mitigate the issue we're discussing here), so why not keep them in the obvious place?
