wrong directory in clone script? #157

Closed Kirtai closed 4 years ago

Kirtai commented 4 years ago

The file "clonePackageRepos.sh" starts with the line "cd Cuis-Smalltalk"

Should this be "cd Cuis-Smalltalk-Dev" to match the repo name?

No, the recommended setup is to have a Cuis-Smalltalk folder that holds Cuis-Smalltalk-Dev and repo folders as siblings.

If you chose to use a different folder instead of 'Cuis-Smalltalk', for instance, an app specific folder, then you need to cd to it yourself.

In any case, the 'cd Cuis-Smalltalk' is harmless. But it might help to avoid cloning all the repos in your home folder in case you forget to cd to your Cuis folder.

Aha, so that's it. Now I know.

Where is this recommendation written down? I looked but couldn't find it.

The only relevant thing I found was in this page which says to do:

mkdir MyProject
cd MyProject
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/Cuis-Smalltalk/Cuis-Smalltalk-Dev.git
./Cuis-Smalltalk-Dev/clonePackageRepos.sh

Should "MyProject" be replaced with "Cuis-Smalltalk"?

Just tweaked the install guide to suggest that. Still, MyProject (meaning a project specific name) might be preferred if you're having several Cuis folders in your machine.
