Keeping the tree in sync

[Mike Soukup]

Here's what we do; we've been quite happy with it.

We keep all our code since 1998, including a bunch of test and prototype code, on an SVN server. We only put the source files there (plus makefiles for the old IFI years). No .project, no .wr* files, no objects. Nothing but .h & .cpp. Then in workbench we create a new project based on one of the FRC examples, delete all the .cpp & .h files that it created in the project, and add the folder that has all our files to the project (Right click on project -> New -> Folder. Click "Advanced", select "Link to folder in the file system", and browse to the folder). That way our code repository isn't cluttered with any of the junk that the IDE creates.
