I'm no git expert, as anyone on this list can attest to, but here's one of the ways I have dealt with this issue:
The repos/ directory contains repos that are already under git, and that (for the most part) I'm not making changes to. Where MY changes happen is under the 'apps', 'targets' and my own 'libs' directories in 'myproj' For most of the stuff I have done, so far, I can simply make a git repository of the targets/<app-name> directory and/or the apps/<app-name> directory and be done. If I knew more about git, I'd probably be able to make a git repository that had the targets/<app-name> and apps/<app-name> directories in one repository, but I'm not. :-) And also add in the libs/my_driver/<driver name> stuff as well. dg > On Feb 1, 2017, at 12:36 PM, Neilh <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hi > > Just got a dumb question to ask - I'm working through the tutorials and its > well explained the standard SCM/git is on > > "myproj/repos/apache-mynewt-core ((mynewt_1_0_0_b1_tag))]$" > > However, after the basic tutorial, with a working "newt" environment, I need > to have the whole sandbox from "myproj" be under SCM.
