Binaryfiles can be committed or not depending on your company policy. In theory you should be able to recreate them again from the source code, but in practice it is a good idea to have an exact copy of anything you have sent out to a customer. So at least for releases the binaries should be committed.
Other option is to actually find out for each type of unknown file exactly what it does and then decide whether it is needed or not and accordingly exclude / include.For this, if you post the extensions of the files you arent sure of, either google / SO can help!!
Personally, i dont believe in commiting binaries at all, even for releases. Seems unnecessary to me as in our case, every release has a label associated with it. So getting the exact code that was released is just a question of getting the code associated with the label and building it.Also, since deployment is usually via setup files, as long as you have the setup msi / exe (and as long as you are keeping backups of those for your releases) having all the binaries checked in into source control seems a bit of overkill
I hope someone can help. I have never intentionally turned on Smart Sync. I always want all my files and documents to be local as well as in Dropbox. After adding a 3rd Mac, last month when I launched my Dropbox App, its new incarnation immediately wants you to Smart Sync. I thought I said no thanks, but now even though my Dropbox App Icon in the Mac Menu bar says everything is up to date and synced, but when you look in a Finder window the main Dropbox file has the blue arrow syncing icon and a mouse hover says "in progress."

The main folder in Finder ("Dropbox") had a clear circle with green checkmark and green circumference, which indicates "contains both local and on-line only files" - when I hovered over that check it said "some files are on-line only" which I could not understand why or see exactly which of the hundreds of files I have in DB these could be!
I have this account set up on 4 separate Macs and an iPhone, but all I could think to do was log out and login, but it still did this. However inexplicably the next day it was solid green and local like it always used to be.
Hopefully it will stay this way, but if you make some be online only, how do you tell which files or documents those are if they have disappeared from your Mac? I never use the actual application, just have folder and aliases on my desktop that I drag & drop files into, and rarely go online.
This way I can drag and drop things I want into a folder on the Desktop of each of my Macs (like "Bills to Pay") and they are there when I am home or at work or on my iPhone. I've never experienced any issues with that and they still all work as expected. To be honest, its the main reason I use Dropbox instead of iCloud (and that iCloud forces you to use your AppleID and I don't like the idea of sending people links to anything connected to my AppleID.)
I never ever have anything set to online only, but what is still completely confusing about Smart Sync or "online only" is the language it has in the explanation that says that 'items you haven't used in a while Dropbox moves them to be online only and removes them from your computer to save space' (yikes). If it does that, you wouldn't see a little cloud because the item would no longer be in your Mac, correct? - which makes me presume that the only way you'd see this is if you logged into and looked at all your actual Dropbox items in the actual Dropbox online cloud, which would mean having to open hundreds of nested folders online to find some item with a little cloud. (LOL)
Your aliases are outside of Dropbox, looking in. That's fine as Dropbox doesn't know they exist. Dropbox only knows about the actual folders inside your Dropbox folder. What isn't supported is when you have a folder located elsewhere on your computer and an alias inside the Dropbox folder looking out. In the past, Dropbox would sync the files at the other end of the alias, allowing you to sync folders and files that weren't located within the Dropbox folder. That behavior changed a couple years ago and is now no longer supported.
It seems ludicrous that there isn't a way to display all of the online-only files. I have almost 200,000 files in thousands of folders stored on Dropbox. Approximately 20 folders set to online-only. However, if I want to find out which of my thousands of folders are online, I have to look at the contents of each folder? That is ridiculously impractical.
I have a piece of software that contains data I would like to move to another computer. The problem is the program does not provide any way to export this data. Does any software exist that will let you know what files a program is using? I know there are programs that given a file, will tell you what program is using it but I'm looking for the opposite.
If that is not enough, Process Monitor will show you a complete log of all file and registry operations that a process performs. That might help if you find you've missed something (like a registry key) after moving it.
Process Explorer is good, but it only shows you what is currently running, a library might just be used for initialization and then discarded or only used during some obscure time. Dependency Walker might be what you're after.
I don't know how to phrase this to be clear. I'm not talking about terminals or shells, I know what the difference between login and non-login shells are. What I want to know is when I start up my computer and log in to the desktop, do any of the "dot files" (.profile, .bash_profile, .bashrc, etc.) in my home folder get run? If so, which ones?
I'm asking because by default most terminal apps you open don't use login shells by default, but I've read advice saying not to modify things like environment variables in your .bashrc file, to instead put it in .bash_profile, but how am I to set those things if I'm primarily using non-login shells? Or is that advice maybe aimed at people who SSH into their workstations?
There is a really nice answer on SuperUser which describes the Difference between .bashrc, .bash_profile and .profile. The accepted answer explains this pretty well. Here are some relevant parts from that answer:
So if I understood your question correctly, you are asking what file is loaded if you log in in graphical mode (using lightdm, in this case your login screen is probably the Unity Greeter). And here I'm pretty sure that in this case it is .profile. The accepted answer from this question also tells us that:
I have a large Unity project and I want to put the source code online. I tried to do it in GitHub but I am out of quota for LFS, so I decided to just zip the project folder and put it on the cloud. Before I do this, I would like to make the folder as small as possible. What files can I delete from the project folder, such that anyone who downloads the remaining files will be able to use my project?
well i thought the file output would show ndvi and other things like that because I heard on another post that someone just wanted orthomap but someone responded by saying webodm gives you all files no matter what.
When I refer to the documents [List of all outputs]( -of-all-outputs)
these information should be found under opensfm/ directory. However, when I download all assets from WebODM they are not available.
I tried to repair my registry errors using ccleaner with success only to find that all the errors were back when I rebooted. I have VISTA sp2 and can only access my computer thru SAFE MODE. I repeated this process many times with the same result. I look at C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\CONFIG and all the registry hive files have not changed in size or date. Can anybody tell me what files are being changed by ccleaner when it tells me it fixed all the errors?
This will compare backup version 0 (latest backup) with backup version 1 (backup before latest). The --full-result option will list all new, changed and deleted files. Without this option, only the first 10 files are listed.
I found problem with this solution. If no changes in latest backup, it is comparing previosly changed backup with prev prev backup. How do I know if files were added, deleted, or modified during the last backup?
I can see something like this if I pick the right backups. If I look with Sysinternals Process Explorer at GoogleDriveFS.exe start times, the last weirdness was in backup after the parent replaced children.
Any files you have direct control over can be copied and pasted to the external drive. As long as the External Drive is attached to the computer - on the desktop should be an Icon and that would be the External drive. Just open the drive by double clicking it and it should open. Then look for the type of file wanted. It would be good idea or organizational purposes, make a folder on External Drive called Photo and put pics in the folder. Repeat the folder creation for Music, Videos etc.
