Can you just checkout a subrepo into your assets?
- acgourley 14y agoYes, this is the only way the handle it. Git subrepos make this a hassle though, in our experience. It's the one thing that SVN would do much better.
- bryanlarsen 14y agoHave you tried git subtrees? They are so much nicer than git submodules in many ways. http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3926683 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3926683
- acgourley 14y agoThanks for the pointer. I've read a few articles thanks you to. It still seems awfully complex and demands very proficient git usage to do even simple operations. I don't think that's suitable.. but I'm curious are you using it with Unity?
- bryanlarsen 14y agoNot with Unity. One big advantage is that git subtree has is that not everybody has to be proficient with it, you can designate someone to set it up and to periodically push the subtrees, and everybody else can ignore it. That's not quite true; they should split their commit so they don't span trees. But it's not a requirement, it just makes things a lot nicer.
