TomYeti Posted August 23, 2016 Report Share Posted August 23, 2016 Title kind of says it all. We're trying to insert a submodule into our Plastic Cloud repository, but all the documentation seems to indicate that we need to be running our own Plastic SCM server. So far, our solution is to create the folder for the submodule, ignore it, and keep it updated with our other git clients (we use plastic for one very large project we had no hand in creating, and bitbucket for everything else) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

manu Posted April 21, 2017 Report Share Posted April 21, 2017 I'm sorry but it's currently not supported, you'll need a Plastic SCM server in the middle in order to be able to have an xlink keeping the submodule content. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bvance Posted June 23, 2017 Report Share Posted June 23, 2017 I'm currently working on a setup that involves creating two repos on my local server and syncing them with two Plastic Cloud repos; one of these repos contains a relative xlink into the other, which seems to work okay so long as my local repos are named in precisely the way the Xlink expects. However, I have no idea whether this is going to prove workable even in the medium-term. @manu Does this seem like at all a viable approach for sharing a bit of code between different projects using Plastic Cloud? Or if it's not a viable approach, is there any other way you might suggest? FWIW I am simultaneously investigating the possibility of using gitsync with submodules, though that's becoming a whole separate disaster unto itself as detailed in this other thread: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lrg_steven Posted November 23, 2020 Report Share Posted November 23, 2020 Are xlinks on the roadmap for cloud? It's not clear in the documentation what is supported where. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calbzam Posted November 24, 2020 Report Share Posted November 24, 2020 Hi, Xlinks are also supported in the cloud. This post was very old when we were just releasing Plastic Cloud Regards, Carlos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ibrahim ghaznavi Posted May 17, 2021 Report Share Posted May 17, 2021 How can we link a cloud repo (say repo1) to another cloud repo (repo 2) via Xlink. Please explain or point me to any tutorial. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
