Deltanji and GIT

[Chris Casey]

Is there any way of interfacing your code management tools with a GIT repository?

Many projects do not stand alone with mumps components and need to be tied into a multi-layered environment where GIT is the industry standard.

[John Murray (GJS)]

What sort of interfacing do you have in mind? For example, pushing Deltanji-managed code components into a Git repository so they can go into a CI build process? Or pulling code from Git into a Deltanji-managed namespace, then pushing it back?

We've sometimes speculated that it may be possible to add a storage format driver to Deltanji which would enable it to interact directly with a Git repository. But to date no-one has funded the work.

As things stand you might be able to set up a location that maps to filesystem storage (i.e. bin and/or text format), then use transfer callouts to drive whatever Git operations are needed to pull or push the corresponding files from/to your Git repo.
