How to reduce the source code checkout

louwho
louwho September 1, 2016

I am using GIT.  In the repository,  in the Branch, I have 4 different Visual Studio project folders.  Instead of getting everything in the branch, I just want to get one of the project folders (instead of all four of them,,,To speed things up, and save on using disk space up). How to do this?  Can I say "LousBranch\App1", to get that one project folder, or, do I have to create another branch in GIT, with just APP1 in it, and use that branch?

A little more information.  When I was talking "projects", I should have said 'Visual Studio Solutions'.  So, you have a Project\Product that is made up of three different solutions.  They are all stored in the same GIT branch (they belong to the same project).  It makes no sense to me to have each solution in a separate branch.  There are three solutions, each in it's own folder\directory in that one branch.    I want to create a separate plan for each of the solutions, and thus for the first one, I only want to pull the folder that contains sln1, and not pull the sln2 and sln3 folders from GIT.  I have tried all kinds of things in the Linked Repository\Advanced\Include,Exclude, but it keeps pulling all three folders.  Can you give me the exact regular expression to use?

What about this...https://confluence.atlassian.com/fisheye/include-exclude-paths-298976903.html (and then you need to stop and start Bamboo?)

For modules support you need to use native git and not built-in git implementation: https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/BAMBOO/Git

In case you'll run into authentication problems please consult https://confluence.atlassian.com/bamkb/checkout-of-git-repository-with-submodules-failed-586056672.html

If you need more help then please contact our Support and provide them with more details:

  • what is your plan/repository configuration
  • what is your repository layout
  • what is the authentication that you use for your repository

Hope it helps

I think you should keep each of those projects in a separate repository. You can then use Bamboo to checkout from all 4 repositories if needed. You can also use Git submodules to combine those repositories.
