From: Konrád Lőrinczi To: Philip Oakley Cc: git-users@googlegroups.com Sent: Saturday, May 16, 2015 9:24 PM Subject: Re: [git-users] Live & local development server
Is there some specific Git or Linux tool for such task? I mean is there some use case for what other developers are using? What hooks should I use forth & back? Thanks, Konrad try http://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Customizing-Git-Git-Attributes and http://stackoverflow.com/questions/22909620/git-smudge-clean-filter-between-branches for some guidance. The first gives a nice overview, while the SO question includes a few examples. Philip 2015.05.16. 22:03 ezt írta ("Philip Oakley" <philipoak...@iee.org>): From: Konrád Lőrinczi I have a live server & a local development server, both Linux. I develop and have my local repo under Windows. Both Linux servers are connected to my local repo as remote repos. My problem is, that local server has some localized content, like config.php. Example difference: Live server: domain="site.com" Local dev server: domain="site.lc" 1) One solution would be to add config.php to .gitignore, but this risks that if I add another config variable to the server, it will be not merged to the local dev server. Is there a possibility to add regular expressions to the .gitignore file? 2) Use a hook script to localize the server content while merge compare is done. Is that possible to do something similar? How others do this? Thanks, Konrad -- IIRC one suggestion is to have different smudge & clean filters for such files. This means when you checkout locally you would pass those config files through a filter which replaces `domain="site.com"` with `domain="site.lc"`. And vice versa on the way back. So your commits are always production 'ready' (well at least suitable / config'd for them). Do make sure any filters are idempotent (can be applied multiple times without changing the result beyond the first desired change).
