Using abapGitServer for Fiori objects advisable? #157

Closed vonglan closed 2 years ago

vonglan commented 2 years ago

Hi, could you give me your opinion: We are just starting with developing Fiori Apps, and this requires a git for versioning the non-ABAP objects. In theory, I expect this to be possible with abapGitServer. Do you see any problems (e.g. "abapGitServer is more a proof-of-concept")? (Additional question: Is migrating from/to abapGitServer possible?) Thanks, Edo

Yea, I think its okay, but expect some quirks

Worst case 1: setup a job to do git clone in order to have a backup Worst case 2: developers will have files cloned locally for backup

Migration: yes its possible, just do a full git clone, this history can then be uploaded to a different git server

Some Alternatives GitHub is USD4/user/month

gitea is free and pretty easy to host, https://gitea.io

if you have SAP BTP, then once it had a git service offering, https://help.sap.com/viewer/01ef8239651c40b5806686d4ec6d8944/Cloud/en-US, not sure if its still possible
