Re: Version Control and Public Repository

[Urs Liska]

Yes, I started using Git for the same reason several months ago, and I'm still thrilled by the implications this has.
It is really perfect to be able to version-control ones sources.
But it's even better for collaborating - working together at the same files while nearly not having to worry about conflicts.

For the same reason I also started using LaTeX lately - and they form a very nice trio (LilyPond, LaTeX and Git).
Currently I'm actually only a few commits away from the first _usable_ release of a LaTeX package providing access to LilyPond's notational elements for use within LaTeX documents ;-)

Re public repositories: Do you know mutopiaproject.org? Is that what you mean?

Dear lovely LilyPond community,

I am wondering if there's already a public repository to upload LilyPond code of full works that are not just useful snippets (which already exists). If one doesn't already exist, would it be useful for people if I set one up?

I use Git version control for all my LilyPond files as well as Dropbox's versioned backups. Does anyone else do the same? This is the main reason why I use LilyPond--plain text source files compared to the proprietary formats of Sibelius and Finale. I also use LilyPond to typeset already-printed scores for extremely clear-er parts and larger and crisper scores (a lot of it under copyright which wouldn't allow me to share them). Why do you use LilyPond? Are you all mainly composers? Music typesetters?

Thank you,

Keehun
