Hi
I would make separate projects for this
° a CI project
° a deployToQA project
° a deploy to Production project
reasons :
° a deploy to production is hardly to start from the trunk, it has to come
from a known stable point
° deploy to QA could come from the trunk, or it could come from a certain
branch / label indicating what is
considered ok for the devs, but needs further testing --> QA
° if you place it all in 1 project, you can do only 1 thing at time
or CI
or deploy to QA
or deploy to prod
if you have several projects, you could deploy to production whenever
you want
and with 1.5 you could at security to this, so only certain people can
do it
° the statistics are correct
a CI process could take X minutes, a deployToProd maybe 1 minute, or so
(depending what it all has to do)
so there are a lot of benefits to making separate projects
seperating also keeps the difficulties of what has to be done in the
involved projects, not in 1 big project.
with kind regards
