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 depends.
For newer lazaruses, .lrs is no longer used, since Lazarus uses the .lfm files
directly for new projects.
If you have {$i something.lrs} in your sources, you'd probably better still
store the .lrs in svn.
I got rid of the .lrs files a long time ago. Just a matter of replacing
{$i something.lrs}
with
{$r something.lfm}
Michael.
