Hi!

Now after switching to git, could someone put here a short tutorial about how to get latest nightly builds and also how to check out and update the source code like I used to do with SVN? I've never used git, so this would obviously help a lot!

Download new nightly, the procedure for checking out svn (on Select package dialog, right click assemblies pane, last menu entry) is now changed to checkout git instead.

Quote:

Recent nightly builds' release numbers have dropped by over 2000. Is this intentional and what's the meaning?

Well, git does not have single central revision number, so we are now counting the number of commits in the "master", which is about the same meaning, but there is less commits than there was svn revision.

That said, thanks for spotting this, I will start adding some delta so that the numbers are always increasing (probably later).

Quote:

Is there a plan to add checkout and updating of sources by git to TheIDE, similar to what is currently available for SVN? I'm glad SVN support is there as I'm still using SVN internally here.

(BTW: I'm on Windows today...)

Best regards,

Tom

Should already work, although I feel like git sync still needs some fixes / adjustments if you commit.
