Fixed In Version:		Doc Type:	Known Issue
Doc Text:	Cause: The business-central creates a commit in the underlying Git repository for each new file. Consequence: Creating a new project means adding new files and also filling some with content, which results in 22 commits, each without a comment. Workaround (if any): None. Result: The Git repository is messy. Developers working with it will have a much harder time making sense of who did what and why.	Story Points:	---

Description Zuzana Krejčová 2013-12-19 16:04:33 UTC

Description of problem:
See also bug 1021406.
Creating a project is one atomic operation from a user's viewpoint (no matter what kind of a user). One atomic operation should also mean one git commit. Instead, business-central creates 22(!) commits. Unnecessary, not even commented, messy, nonsensical.

Just to make this clear enough...
commit #1: created resourceName/src/main/java/.gitignore with line '# empty'
commit #2: created empty resourceName/src/main/.java
commit #3: created resourceName/src/main/resources/.gitignore with line '# empty'
commit #4: created empty resourceName/src/main/.resources
commit #5: created resourceName/src/test/java/.gitignore with line '# empty'
commit #6: created empty resourceName/src/test/.java
commit #7: created resourceName/src/test/resources/.gitignore with line '# empty'
commit #8: created empty resourceName/src/test/.resources
commit #9: created empty resourceName/src/main/resources/META-INF/kmodule.xml
commit #10: filled resourceName/src/main/resources/META-INF/kmodule.xml with '<kmodule...'
commit #11: created empty resourceName/pom.xml
commit #12: filled resourceName/pom.xml with '<?xml...'
commit #13: created empty resourceName/project.imports
commit #14: filled resourceName/project.imports with '<configuration>...'
commit #15: created resourceName/src/main/java/project/group/projectartifact/.gitignore with line '# empty'
commit #16: created empty resourceName/src/main/java/project/group/.projectartifact
commit #17: created resourceName/src/test/java/project/group/projectartifact/.gitignore with line '# empty'
commit #18: created empty resourceName/src/test/java/project/group/.projectartifact
commit #19: created resourceName/src/main/resources/project/group/projectartifact/.gitignore with line '# empty'
commit #20: created empty resourceName/src/main/resources/project/group/.projectartifact
commit #21: created resourceName/src/test/resources/project/group/projectartifact/.gitignore with line '# empty'
commit #22: created empty resourceName/src/test/resources/project/group/.projectartifact
All of this means only that one project was created.

Things to fix:
1. Make it one commit.
2. Add a comment.

As a side note - I'd understand the heavy load of .gitignore files, empty .<dir> files don't make sense to me.

I think you completed the change for batch commits when creating a new project?

Commits are not in the ER1 build.

Projects are now created in one commit and the commit is commented. VERIFIED with ER2.
