Make folder of JS part a submodule
Move folder with JS part (/deploy/[Notepad++ Directory]/plugins/jN) to separate repo
Make it a submodule
Merge with https://github.com/KOLANICH/jN-npp-scripts
Now you have a single repo for JS and C++ parts of plugin, but they are relatively standalone: most of users don't need the C++ part of your repo, but everybody needs the JS one, and the JS part is interacting with C++ through API and is not needed in order to build. The advantage of having separate repos for that is that they can be cloned separately, so you can place JS part repo into your npp "plugins/jN/" dir, upgrade with git pull and develop in place. To install it a user just needs to clone it there. Now a user have to clone the whole repo and extract JS part from there. Another solution is to clone my repo ;)
:) I would go this way. Can you make a suggestion for corresponding appveyor.yml packaging scripts and dll together from different repositories?
In fact I have never used appveyor, but I guess git submodules should do the work as long as you can trigger submodule update.
Not a bad idea with the submodule. If you'll want to go for it, only adding an "install" phase as described in the doc should be enough. The rest of the page should not apply, I suppose, as the repo will probably not be a private one.
