Install Symfony, SVN and GIT

Posted by Elias

Ok then, after installing PHP, Apache, and all those services, I needed to install Symfony...

How? First of all I needed to install Subversion, by typing:

$ sudo apt-get install subversion

been there, install GIT also:

$ sudo apt-get install git-core gitk git-gui git-svn

Done, then you can get the latest Symfony, just change the directory to /usr/share/php5, then type:

/usr/share/php5$ sudo svn co http://svn.symfony-project.com/branches/1.3 symfony-1.3

Done! you have Symfony on your machine!

the interesting point arisen

the interesting point arisen by you, well One trick is to workaround this git limitation is to add an empty .gitignore in the empty directory. This doesn't affect svn and the directory is no more empty from git's point of view. Here is the bash one-liner to create this .gitignore, to be run from the project root directory. find . \( -type d -empty \) -and \( -not -regex ./\.git.* \) -exec touch {}/.gitignore \; _______________________________________ Team Folbe 646-363 exam Rod Holders Oars-N-Mine Pro Staff FIRM Pro 70-630 exam Staff YAMAHA/SKEETER/G3 70-294 exam Boatsc
