version control - Does git have any built in repository management strategy? -


i'm trying come version control strategy moving our company’s code , document files centralized scm (perforce) git. content in perforce 1 large depot projects stored, want break multiple smaller git repositories number of reasons.

the issue have how can index of these repositories can found. far can tell, git doesn't have built in tools managing multiple repositories.

i did find git-submodule, sounds that's making repository content of other repositories, , don't want manage content of various repositories repositories themselves.

originally thinking flat file system on our sever:

/repos    -repo1.git    -repo2.git    -...    -repon.git

and git command query directory repository names , comment content (sort of logging server, going /repos directory , running git log). thinking make /repo git repository (a repository of repositories) , said, seems so... un-git-y.

so questions are:

  1. am missing built git tools/features made manage multiple repositories this?
  2. am correct in thinking git-submodule not i'm looking manage this?
  3. are there strategies you've seen type of set up?

if want pure git solution, looking git-submodule.

especially when say:

i thinking make /repo git repository (a repository of repositories)

this submodules are.

the parent repo keep track of single file - .gitmodules, connects paths revisions of other repos.

however in experience i've come conclusion git submodules not ideal, when deal inexperienced git users. cause problems when switching branches or making changes in submodules. gui git clients not have full support submodules.

but if want track these folders, ok submodules.

another way ignore such folders in main repo , have separate git repos in these folders. git works in these folders, no matter under git repo.

this solution works vendor libraries within application project. , use package/dependency manager update them or cd , git pull.

java - IntelliJ - No such instance method -

using intellij's 12 ultimate, i'm running following code in debugger: java import play.api.libs.json.jsvalue; public class foo { ... public jsvalue tojson() { ... } public class fooexample { ... foo foo = new foo(); system.out.println("...); //<-- breakpoint at breakpoint, right-clicked source code , picked "evaluate expression," typing in: foo.tojson() . but following error showed up: no such instance method: play.api.libs.json.jsvalue$class.com.foo.foo.tojson () am doing wrong? foo#tojson calls scala code, if matters. edit had breakpoint after instantiation of foo. downvoted it, deserved it. edit my answer no longer valid after op modified question (i.e. moved breakpoint actual is).. a breakpoint hit before line executed. in case foo has not yet been declared or instantiated (i.e. foo constructor has not yet been called). you'll need put breakpoint @ next line (or step on current line) if want evaluate foo .

identifier - Is it possible for an html5 document to have two ids? -

i wondering if html5 element can have 2 ids, this: <button id="thing1" id="thing2" name="button1" onclick="change()">click here</button> or this: <button id="thing1, thing2" name="button1" onclick="change()">click here</button> also, if 1 of ids said 1 thing, , other id said thing, 1 used? tl;dr : no. in versions of html, each element can have 1 id. see the spec : the id attribute specifies element's unique identifier (id). [dom] the value must unique amongst ids in element's home subtree , must contain @ least 1 character. the value must not contain space characters. note: there no other restrictions on form id can take; in particular, ids can consist of digits, start digit, start underscore, consist of punctuation , etc. note: element's unique identifier can used variety of purposes, notably way link specific parts of document usin
