Boar

Boar is a version control system for large binary files.

Here's a quick how-to / notes:

boar mkrepo ${REPO_PATH}
 
boar --repo ${REPO_PATH} mksession ${SESSION_NAME}
 
# list available sessions
boar --repo ${REPO_PATH} list
 
# to setup the .boarignore I gave:
boar --repo ${REPO_PATH} setprop schematics ignore –f .boarignore
 
# to extract the ignore property:
boar --repo ${REPO_PATH} getprop schematics ignore –f .boarignore
 
# to import existing (non-boar) projects into a repository:
boar --repo ${REPO_PATH} import ${WORKING_DIR} ${SESSION_NAME} –m "${COMMIT_MESSAGE}"
# to checkout existing (boar) projects into a working directory:
boar --repo ${REPO_PATH} co schematics ${WORKING_DIR}
 
boar status
 
boar ci -m "${COMMIT_MESSAGE}"

.boarignore
