Paths for file lists
Carting saves filelists to Carthage folder by default. But often this folder is in gitignore. Just think about paths or at least info in readme about this case.
@artemnovichkov I've just check IMO the most popular .gitignore for Xcode project and it includes the following lines:
# Carthage
#
# Add this line if you want to avoid checking in source code from Carthage dependencies.
# Carthage/Checkouts
Carthage/Build
So Carthage folder is not excluded in most common cases. And what's more important is it xcfilelists folder worth something without Builds folder?
On the other hand, maybe it's an option to use Carting directory as a default output?
Hi, @dstranz! Thanks for the suggestions! The main point is that Carting is not synced with Carthage. It leads to some problems: wrong paths, missing xcfilelists etc. The simplest way is to update README with this warning. I thought about using Carting as a proxy for Carthage commands with additional main logic. But... I don't like this idea. So now Carting users should think about path updates.
About folders - .gitignore is a good example of common cases. We should warn users about cases when Carthage folder is ignored by git. In my opinion, we should show a warning in Console and lead users to track xcfilelists. What do you think?
@artemnovichkov We could use git check-ignore Carthage/xcfilelists on Cartfile start and then show warning if it is.
On Cartfile of Carting? Honestly I didn't know about check-ignore command
