Git files? - Newscoop Development Discussions on Sourcefabric Forum

Sebastian Olsson (2)

I notice there are some subfolders called .git/ in the new release of Newscoop. Shouldn't those have been excluded from the package?

Hi Sebastian,

You are correct, in the tarball and zip file there are .git directories under the vendors/ directory. This issue is being tracked in http://dev.sourcefabric.org/browse/CS-4915

If you use the .deb or .rpm package versions there should not be any .git directories:

http://sourcefabric.booktype.pro/newscoop-42-for-journalists-and-editors/installation-on-red-hat-enterprise/

As a consequence, the .deb and .rpm packages are much smaller than the tarball or zip file. If you find any other .git directories in the .deb or .rpm package, please let me know!

Cheers!

Daniel
