Finally decided to worry about messing up all the code i’ve made for my little app ..Now that I’ve got the majority of the MAJOR functions done.
Was looking into various options for it, but then discovered that GIT is included in Eclipse. So that’s cool. Followed a couple simple steps from http://www.vogella.com/tutorials/EclipseGit/article.html#github to set up my project in GIT, and voila, I now have version control.
Just had to overcome one slip – didn’t realize it would move my code – thought it would just add the versioning to it. But thats fine, I cleaned up where it was being moved to, and sorted that out.
I’ve now added the GIT repositories to my backup process.. so I also have backups of it all.
moving forward, I have much better tracking of changes made to the code, so I can revert back should I screw something up!
On top of that.. I’ve been looking into a useful bug tracking tool.. I have a million TODO’s in eclipse.. and those will be great to go over.. but I also have a note book of general ideas and enhancements.. these would be better to track in a tool. there are lots out there.. currently looking at Axosoft…
