This repository is designed to contain external libraries to be imported as a Git submodule, to provide helper functions while writing Makefiles. Consider this repo as experimental. This currently only includes two helper functions, with the goal of putting any custom make functions here for importing in other repositories, rather then duplicating code.
You can read the docs to get a better understanding of how to use this library.
The following is an example of how to include this repository as a submodule in your project:
$ cd my-git-project
$ git submodule add [email protected]:powerhome/makelib.git github.com/powerhome/makelibThis will add the repository into github.com/powerhome/makelib. Using github.com/powerhome as the parent folder will make it easier to recognize when you are working with an external PowerHRG project imported as a subproject. You can add this to any path you like, just replace github.com/powerhome/makelib in the above to command to whatever path you want relative to your repository.
If you would like to test a development branch of this repository, you can modify your .gitmodules configuration file:
[submodule "github.com/powerhome/makelib"]
path = github.com/powerhome/makelib
url = [email protected]:powerhome/makelib.git
branch = my_development_branch
You can then update your local copy by running:
$ git submodule update --recursive --remote
