I've been using git subtree merge for this. I think it is better than git submodules as it limits the complexity to only the people merging and updating external modules (and it's really not that complex). But people can continue to commit fixes without much hassle or updating multiple repositories. Some wrapper scripts against git subtree are here: https://github.com/apenwarr/git-subtree/ Or in contrib in git 1.7.11+ One advantage of librarian-puppet though is that you can effectively create topic branches where only one module is denomalized but the rest are following the latest version you have. That sort of workflow is clunky at best with submodules/subtrees. -- Erik Dalén -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
