Git or sftp?

I’m to a point I’d like to publish my project to our server. I didn’t start the project with git but it’s setup now. However, looking at the docs, it appears wappler is hard coded to use commercial git, not git installed on an ubuntu server. I could be wrong. If it can connect to a regular git server, what’s the wappler way to connect the project to an existing bare repo? Of course I could just move the .git folder created on a manual clone and then manually add/commit from the current project folder.

Has anyone tackled this in the past? Built a project and then switched to git?

I didn’t understand half you said :rofl:

It’s true Wappler doesn’t support deploying to custom Git servers/providers yet, so there’s no “Wappler way” to do it. I suggest you use SFTP instead

You may still use Git for development, and git push to any remote of your choice. In fact, you could also do this to actually deploy your project on the remote server, but it’s not the “Wappler way”, so I recommend you stick to SFTP deployment

yeah… i was all over the place. no more beer and forums for me :laughing:

so… after I add a target for the production server and hit publish… it picked up the git connection??? The folder on the server is a working tree for the repo… anyone explain that? It’s interesting… and confusing at the same time. I never tried to add anything related to git to the project, I didn’t realize on the publish window, trying to publish again to fix an issue it was asking for git commit until after. which was odd.

We do hope to add that soon as publishing possibility
