Looking at some projects filed away here, I find I've been
inconsistent so would appreciate it if somebody could say
authoritatively: what types of file should be put in a repository, and
what is regenerated reliably?
Obviously .lpi, .lpr, .lfm and .pas or .pp should be saved, and any
static .inc files.
I presume that anything machine-generated and usually put into the lib
directory shouldn't be stored even if it ends up elsewhere: .ppu, .o,
.a, .res, .or.
What about things like .lrs and .rst?
.rst is also regenerated, no need to store them.
Thanks Michael, it was your comment about ResourceStrings that reminded
me to ask this.
What about .lrs, since it looks as though it's generated from .lfm?
It's actually .lrs that I find I'm storing inconsistently :-)
svn ls http://svn.freepascal.org/svn/lazarus/trunk/ide | cut -d . -f 2
|sort |uniq returns
dci
fpc
ico
inc
lfm
lpi
lpr
pas
pp
rc
res
xml
i.e. specifically includes .rc and .res but not .lrs.
