Nancy, do you have nested checkouts then or did you need to build a script to manage the combining of the sites checkout with the core checkout? Does this work then? : .gitignore of the core site includes sites but then you create a checkout of the separate repo in the sites folder with its own .gitignore file? Curious as well.

Jeff, I build another repo for the multisite core. Of course, it excludes the sites. As far as I am concerned, the core part is an entity that is managed separately from the individual sites.

I've been racking my brain trying to come up with an elegant git workflow for multisite. If I just want the site portions under git control, then it's not an issue. But if I want core as part of each, then it becomes so. I considered using git submodule, but then the workflow gets more complex on the local level. Has anyone found a nice way to handle this? --- drupal.org/user/367108<http://drupal.org/user/367108> linkedin.com/in/jeffrgreenberg<http://linkedin.com/in/jeffrgreenberg> accidentalcoder.com<http://accidentalcoder.com/> / ayendesigns.com<http://ayendesigns.com/> @accidentalcoder -- [ Drupal support list | http://lists.drupal.org/ ]
