How to use Altium with Git?


Altium has built in support for Subversion but we do have a need for version control at multiple sites. WANdisco can synchronize multiple SVN repositories but it is expensive. Has anyone used Altium with Git? If so, how?


Solution

  • I recently re-raised this question with Altium and got the following reply:

    Eric Anderson, good question! I am sorry to say that there is only support for SVN and CVS as you were aware. I have not heard of any future plans for the other storage/version control software packages. The only thing that comes to mind is to use the built in SVN and in the "working directory" try adding that to Git (or others) and do the commits/updates external from Altium.

    I can also suggest going onto AltiumLive and into Ideas section and enter an idea. If enough people like it and vote for it the possibility for implementation exists (no promises of course).

    AltiumLive ideas is at http://bugcrunch.live.altium.com/#Ideas/New if anyone feels like commenting there.
