Re: Suggestions for content hosting
Thank you for your reply. Could you give me a bit more information about how you use Amazon S3 bucket? Do you use another tool to organize files, upload, etc in there? TIA!

Files linked from parent project are being unlinked?
Hi everyone, I am working on Flare, multiple projects. We are starting to get move involved in content re-use, so I am experimenting with the idea of having a parent (master) project, and then other projects that link to specific topic files, in the parent project, that we re-use. Our parent project...

Where can I find my conflicts
Hi everyone,
I'm using Flare with GIT; and I am being told that I have a conflict when I try to push/pull files. However, I have no idea what that conflict is (which file) - where can I see my conflicts, to resolve them?
TIA,
Adriana

Re: Unable to add content when using Git source control
Thanks @Nita - you are right, it was an empty folder issue.
Do you have any experience with deleting folders? And why GIT may or may not actually delete them?
Thanks

Re: Unable to add content when using Git source control
Ok - as an update. GIT can't commit empty folders, so we added a single topic to each folder, and now they have committed. But I have also deleted some sample folders that came with the project we started, and my colleague is still seeing the folders I deleted...

Unable to add content when using Git source control
I have checked out my Flare project, added a bunch of folders, committed, and pushed. We are using GIT. However, when my colleague pulls the project, they do not see my new folders. I am not sure what I am doing wrong? If anyone has an tips or suggestions, I'd be grateful.

Adding a template to GIT project folder
Hi everyone, We are working on a Flare project, bound to GIT. I have created a topic template file and added it and pushed/committed to GIT. But my colleagues cannot see the template file in their Flare projects/instances, even though they have pulled, updated, etc. Thoughts? Suggestions? TIA -Adriana

Re: Having trouble binding to GIT source control
A bit more detail; I think I am getting stuck at the certificate stage. For some reason, I seem unable to authenticate my public and private keys; because I am unable to find a way to get my username and password for GIT into Flare, anywhere.

Having trouble binding to GIT source control
Hi everyone,
Starting a brand new Flare project, and I want to bind it to GIT. My Sys admin has provided a key, and set up our repo, but I'm sure where to put my GIT password inside Flare - so I seem unable, so far, to access the repo and push files? I am hoping someone can help me!
TIA,
Adriana
