CiviCRM Community Forums (archive)

Hi,

My development configuration:
I work on netbeans on my Windows.
My civicrm site runs on a remote ubuntu-server to which I can ssh and ftp.
I need to make some changes to civicrm-core.

I would like to work with netbeans' git feature (in order to graphically see history in netbeans, committing from the IDE etc.) so I cloned my fork using the IDE, and created a project that uploads the files to my servers.

Now my server has a folder which is like my fork, but of course I can't just symlink to it from <drupal base>/sites/all/modules. I need to add all the stuff missing, and right now I am copying (without overriding existing files) from a tarball I downloaded from sourceforge.
I guess there is a more programmatic way for doing that.
The help on gitify explains the opposite of what I am trying to achieve (it starts from a tarball and then connects to github).

thanks,

Roi
