I have a few questions about this!
1. Why? To control where the source code is stored? Restricted access to API's or data? Special compute (e.g. GPU/FPGA's) needs?
2. You have managed to make this workable for yourself. How do your colleagues deal with this?
3. Could you share what kind of industry your employer is in?
- rjmill 5y agoSure thing! I didn't want to make my already-long story even longer, but I'm happy to elaborate. 1. Special compute needs (GPU) 2. Many have the specific GPU in their work-issued laptop. I transferred to the team recently, so I haven't gotten mine yet. A few others use the same setup though. They use "git status -uno" which drops the check for untracked files to speed things up. From there, they just deal with the slowness. It's not terrible as long as you aren't obsessive about committing frequently (which I am.) That's why I'm interested in this kind of tool though. I can't recommend my current workflow because of how messy the hack is. If I can use a real tool, the recommendation becomes easier. 3. Semiconductors.
