Re: keeping plugins up to date [was: template choice error (

Parker,

I had missed one of the patches from the Rails trunk, but that is
fixed now. Try checking out the latest version of the plugin from the
svn repository. The problem occurred when using render :layout =>
false. The latest revision is 17. Let me know if you continue to have
problems with the latest version.

Ah great, thanks.

Here’s another question for you. Not a rails/plugin question per se,
more of a source management thing, but I’m feeling like my solution is
non-optimal.

I wanted to add this plugin to a project I’m working on with some
folks, so I grabbed the thing, added it to my own svn repository and
committed it so we’d all have the src (and the same version). So now
if I svn update the thing it’s looking at my repository, not yours,
which makes it inconvenient to keep up to date.

To upgrade what I did was grab a new copy, then used rsync to get my
stuff up to date, svn diff’ed to see what files I’d changed, and
committed, fixing my problems.

This works ok, but I can’t help but think there’s a better way. I’m
curious how other folks are handling this situation.

Thanks much,

Parker-

You should look into svn:externals. That way all of your people can

have the same version but still get to svn up from the original source.
