Version control question

Post by ken rentz »

I'm currently working on an install and am almost to the point where it's functional. I then looked into it's folders, and noticed that it makes a lot of files, sub files, etc. When I go to check this installer into our version control system, which files do I need to check in, and which can will be recreated as needed?

Also, is it possible to create an install with the script files still under version control (read only)? Our old WISE installer required write access on the main script which was a real pain.

Just check in everything in the main project folder (not subfolders), excluding any DLL files in the main project folder.

Read only files should work.
