Hi,
I'm in a situation where I have an "engine" that several projects depend on.
I want to make each project independent and checkouts shall be performed for
each project. I have 2 ways I can go about this as far as I know:
1. I can perform a checkout of each project individually and have an
external link to the "engine". This is very conservative and as far as the
functional end-result is concerned, this is exactly what I want.
2. All projects could be "under" the "engine" and I could check out the
engine and use sparse directories to exclude the projects I am not
interested in.
In order to do option #2, which is ideal because I like to avoid the use of
externals that point internally to the same repository, I need to have the
ability to explicitly exclude items from my working copy post-checkout. For
example, if I make sure to properly setup my sparse directories on my first
checkout and someone adds a new hefty project later, I'll be forced to get
that project on my next update (At least that is what I feel will happen). I
don't want to have to keep doing fresh checkouts every time I want to
exclude something else. Is there a way to exclude things after a checkout
has already been performed?
