Honestly, I prefer check-in everything shops. It's way too often otherwise some different Java version, or IDE version, or Maven central being down screws something up, or you have to wait a long time for a Chef recipe or disk image to give you the reference version. Half my day today was dealing with someone updating Java on half our continuous build system slave computers and breaking everything because it didn't have JAVA_HOME and unlimited strength encryption all setup properly.
- SnakeDoc 13y agoThat sounds like either poor Sys Admin'ing and/or poor documentation... SCM should not have "clutter" in it, otherwise you wind up with an all-day download of 54GB of dead or useless garbage. The Kernel's repo is only a few GB's and it has MANY more changes and much more history than FB does...
- kyberias 13y agoYou should realize that the kernel doesn't have image and other assets that FB might have. And the repo obviously is the right place for them.
- pekk 13y ago"The" repo. As if they had no choice but to put everything for every aspect of the business into ONE giant repo. Hopefully they actually have some separate sites, separate tools and separate libraries. Or could understand how to use submodules or something rather than literally putting everything in one huge repository. Whether to put images and other assets into git repos is a separate decision.
