dev / www gitignored #12

Hi, what is exactly the idea behind the dev and www folder being git ignored? Or is that only to keep you from committing unwanted files into this project?

andrewstaffell commented 7 years ago

Hi @matteodem yes, it's so an individual install's files never get committed to the FDK main repo.

I suppose you are asking because you want to have version control on your own project. For this just do git init within the dev/ folder (as mentioned here). All your project source files are within dev/, so there's no need to have the contents of www/ in version control (it can be rebuilt easily in a different environment if required).

Does that make sense? Let me know if you still have a doubt.

Yeah that makes sense, thanks for the explanation! Shouldn't the git init step be described here? https://github.com/fabrica-wp/fabrica-dev-kit#running-the-build-script--watch-during-active-development

It's just underneath that – but version control is not part of the build script: it's a separate process / action to gulp, so it makes sense to us that it's in a separate section.

Thanks for trying FDK and let us know if you have any other questions / feedback.
