Hi all, I am against submodules !
If we implement submodules things will be harder on downstream projects we guided downstream projects to integrate their own apps folder and include our apps in their apps http://www.nuttx.org/doku.php?id=wiki:nshhowtos:external-applications Regards Alin On Fri, Dec 13, 2019 at 10:12 AM David Sidrane <david.sidr...@nscdg.com> wrote: > Greg, > > I think the below steps will do a an atomic tag/branch (Branch protections > may be needed as well) > > However, it exemplifies why Submodules are evil but useful.
