Create a binaries folder on SVN?

FakeTruth · (This post was last modified: 08-17-2012, 04:41 AM by FakeTruth.)

Right now the SVN trunk is cluttered with project/development files and binary/release files (and folders).

I suggest creating a Binaries folder in trunk where the binaries are stored after compiling. This binaries folder will then also contain the default ini files and everything else the server needs.

I'm bringing this up, because it got worse after adding the Android project to SVN

True, just be sure to use "svn move" so that the history is maintained.

I personally don't like how Android files clutter the trunk root, would it be possible to put them in a separate Android folder as well? (just like VC2008 and VC2010 are)

Also note that there is already an Install folder where I was planning to put files that are to be included in an installer but are not compiled. Currently there are only the install scripts used during the nightbuild, but perhaps we could move the example config there?

And any change in the folder structure will probably break the nightbuild script, so either fix it afterwards, or at least let me know so that I can fix it.

I don't know. I'll try this right now

Put the binaries also in there?

Dunno how that stuff works, I'll let you know when I break everything!
