Have you tried GIT with PcDmis?

Some of you already know that I left the CMM world ~1 year ago and have moved into a Controls Engineer role. Git has become a common task in my daily work life and have grown to appreciate it. Each time I'm in use of it I can't help to think about all the times Git would've been useful with PcDmis...

Recently, I've began helping out a shop write programs on my spare time. Time to test Git and PcDmis and find out how well they work together.

Thus far... .PRG files are binaries and therefore kills the usefulness of GIT a little bit BUT not totally. I am able to create branches and travel back and forth thru time. Would I still use Git and PcDmis even though Git doesn't display details as far as what changed exactly changed from a last edit... YES!!!

Let me know if you're interested in learning more and I'll type up a simple thread on my adventures with Git and PcDmis... whenever I find the spare time Smiley

  • Very interesting!

    Regarding point 3 and 4, so in theory it could be set up to automatically make commits every time I save during programming?
    In GIT I will then see all made saves as commits (with date time info) and if I wish I can comment on them?

    Do you have experiences with huge amount of programs saved in folders and sub folders?
    How does GIT handle that? :scream;

    Btw.. the link does not work for me.
