![]() Over time, you'll end up with a GIT scenery that just grows and grows with revision history. So GIT is _really_ inefficient when you have binary data and only need the latest snapshot. The Space Shuttle GIT repository by now has 1.8 GB (!) size (geez, when did this grow so much) - the actual latest snapshot is a download of less than 120 MB. In fact, GIT always download stores the whole revision history - which is most certainly not what you need as a user - as a user you need the latest snapshot. How desperate are you folks to advertize a general feature of all version control systems as a highlight of terraGit? Do you think SVN (which is what terrasync internally runs on) downloads ALL every time you update? Do you think the current http solution of terrasync does that? One time download then you can update without downloading it ALL again! Why don't you all join the team instead of provoking it and constantly trying to start controversy? ![]() But for sure it is not the way the project wants to head at this moment in time and all your provocation isn't going to change that. You completely miss the point that this is an evolving project and instead of trying to report issues, troubleshoot them and subsequently fixing them, it's your choice to cry foul and make misleading statements about something that just so happens to work for you, that automatically makes it better and easier in your mind. So what "always works" for you and is easy may not be for someone else. The third or maybe fourth time I tried to update it did it again and I haven't touched it since. The next time I tried, the same thing happened and I think that time I wiped my repo and started over to get the current version. I think we finally got it sorted out (all just because I tried to update). The first time I had Israel walk me through a day or two conversation trying to fix it using GIT commands that I knew nothing about. I guarantee you for a complete novice in the ways of GIT, SVN, HTTP, etc that installing FlightGear and having the terrasync work right out of the gate is way easier and better than having to know versioning control software or even using TerraMaster.Īs far as "always works", you know why I don't like fgmembers as much as I thought I might in the beginning, because every time I needed to update and pull the new stuff, it broke. ![]() With a little effort on your part you may have helped other users and the project as a whole by troubleshooting the problem and helping to fix terrasync permanently so others who don't know anything about versioning control software can simply install FlightGear and have it do all the work and not have to use a third party solution. "With a little help" you may have got terrasync to work. TerraMaster accomplishes the same thing as terraGit and gets scenery copied over to your hard drive. "With a little help", they may have got you to use it to copy scenery to your hard drive so you could point the sim at it and use it. If you asked others, they may have pointed you to TerraMaster. You mean you got some scenery copied to your hard drive that you subsequently pointed the sim at and now you can use it?īut you still needed help to get that working right? However with a little help i fixed it with how is it that fixing anything? It certainly isn't "fixing" anything that might be wrong with terrasync.
