Talk:Bering-uClibc 4.x - Developer Guide - Hints and Tips for using Git SCM
From bering-uClibc
Right now we have the a Git repository called "leaf" with the following structure:
leaf/ bering-uclibc4/ buildtool/ files... source/ files...
It does not seem possible to git-clone just part of a repository, so all of the source files get downloaded when initializing the build environment. Then they all get downloaded again into buildtool/sources/
, and get built from there.
That doesn't seem very efficient.
Should we consider having more than one Git "repository", one for buildtool and another for sources?
