Has anyone had any success converting a set of source files in libraries on
an IBM i to a source controlled environment using Git?
If so:
- How did you create the default repository at the start?
- How do you compile the objects on the i? (I understand DDS might be a
problem unless the source member is copied back to the i)
- The source shouldn't be hanging around on the i after compile, so do we
need to clean up source files after every compile?
- When we need to debug the objects on the i, how does the debugger find
the source?
I have os v6.1 and RDi v9.5.x at my disposal, possibly upgrading the os to
v7.1 in the "near future". We currently have all our Git repos on network
storage and (unless otherwise warned) I intend to do the same with this.
We are also looking at commercial products to do all this for us, so any
vendor suggestions could be useful (I already know about Softlanding,
ARCAD, MKS, Rational Team Concert and Aldon), but cost is a major obstacle
for this and most of the additional features are not wanted.
