@@ -30,3 +30,14 @@ To make updating more manageable, we have added some scripts on top of subtrees:
|
|
|
- add a new app with `.utils/add-subtree.sh <path> <repo url> <branch> [subdir]`, this will pull the history and create `path/.gitsubtree` to remember the url, branch and subdir
|
|
|
- run `.utils/update-subtree.sh <path>` to pull updates for a subtree
|
|
|
- or run `.utils/bulk-update-subtrees.sh` to do it for all subtrees
|
|

|
+Most apps have a remote subtree URL for both the original repository, and for any forks / other sources such as [@xMasterX's pack](https://github.com/xMasterX/all-the-plugins).
|
|
|
+Unfortunately, this process is currently manual as our helper scripts don't cover it. We instead:
|
|
|
+- add from one remote
|
|
|
+- delete the directory in a commit
|
|
|
+- add from another remote
|
|
|
+- replace the new directory with the previous one
|
|
|
+- compare the changes between forks and keep the best of both
|
|
|
+- add any eventual edits we have on our end
|
|
|
+If you're an app developer wanting to add your app, or a third party who wants to include something they find useful, you don't need to bother with this cumbersome process.
|
|
|
+We will do it for you, just add from a single remote URL, or simply make an issue requesting an app to be added!
