April 18, 2017 Cleaning up Dub/Dmd builds | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
Just some basic questions regarding Dub projects with GitHub. I'm just getting my toes wet with GitHub so these might be pretty naive questions. I've got about 35 mini dub projects where each project holds an OpenGL tutorial. like so: 01_01_hello_window .dub build application-$DFLAGS-windows-x86_64-dmd_2071-090A2D44A9209535339D8167E6A96BA6" o o o application-$DFLAGS-windows-x86_64-dmd_2071-D8ED32593AF993350341F03512FE4A7C" dub.json source (all my .d files) 01_01_hello_window.exe dub.sdl dub.selections.json 01_02_textures .dub build (etc.) When I try to upload these files to my new repo, GitHub (rightfully so) complains that I have too many files. Since I'm using sdl and not json, can I safely delete all the files that pertain to json? Can I do this some way at the command line? Also, I have tons of empty folders with cryptic names like "application-$DFLAGS-windows-x86_64-dmd_2071-D8ED32593AF993350341F03512FE4A7C" above. Is there some way to suppress these from even being created? Finally, is it problematic to have so many little dub folders? Should I have organized things in a different (better) manner? Thanks. |

You shouldn't upload files from the .dub directory, that's local build cache that shouldn't be published. You can simply add the .dub directory to your .gitignore file.

Thanks. That seems like an elegant solution. Sorry if that is documented somewhere. I never came across it or didn't understand it when I did.

I never came across it or didn't understand it when I did. If you create dub project by "dub init" command it automatically creates .gitignore file. Also github provides premade .gitignore files for many programming languages ("Add .gitignore" button on Create new repository). Those files are from https://github.com/github/gitignore repo. |
