mu clone workflow requires multiple .mu_repo files #56

Closed rasmusskovdk closed 5 years ago

rasmusskovdk commented 5 years ago

I like the mu clone workflow, so I checked this .mu_repo file into my "main" repo:

repo=. repo=..\depA serial=True

After I cloned the the "main" repo and its dependencies into a root folder, I still want to be able to use mu (e.g. mu rb). When I'm outside the main repo (e.g. in root or depA) mu can't see any .mu_repo file and will no longer work.

Should I maintain a separate .mu_repo file in my root folder?

Well, there are 2 choices there... you can either enter that repository and do mu commands from there (so, you'd cd into the cloned repo and do mu rb from there when you want) or you can have a separate .mu_repo file on the root folder (both are valid choices and you can choose what works best for you).

p.s.: I'm closing the issue because it's working as intended.
