BitBucket Basics / Git Tips
Set up my first Git repo at BitBucket, (and although I am going through the Tutorial,) I'd like to create this topic here for tips on using Git and/or BitBucket, to develop a project specifically for SketchUp Ruby.

First question... what should the Wiki page be ?
If I create a README at the top of the Git repo, is it displayed as the Wiki by default. (And conversely, if I edit the Wiki manually, is it saved as as the README file ??)
I know there needs to be project introduction, and I'd also like somewhere to list the goals of the project for first release at v1.0.0, and it seems like this is a good place.
But also... since this is a library project, .. we need a place to display the API (whether manually written, or RDoc generated. And the Wiki seems also to be a nice place for this, (but maybe I am missing some Documentation feature of BitBucket ??)

It seems the project / repos are missing a discussion feature, where general issues or strategy for the project can be discussed.
I would not think we would wish to fill up the Issues List will this kind of general discussion.
So we'd need to create either a GoogleGroup, or a Beta Forum here at SCF, for the project ??

Local Repo / Plugin Testing Syncronization
OK, I followed the Tutorial and made my "repos" dir in my HOME dir.
Created (cloned) the project in that dir, let's call it "repos/proj"
Previously, I was working on my project in a subdir of SU's "Plugins" dir. This makes it handy for loading and debugging.
So I manually copied the entire project dir hierarchy to "~/repos/proj" and used the Git GUI to commit and push the first version of the code to the online Git repo at BitBucket.
All seems well so far.
But now, I need to continue editing the code, testing it, and pushing updates.
The question is... do I work on the set under the "SketchUp/Plugins" dir, and manually copy to the local repo, or reset my Notepad++ session to open files from the "~/repos/proj" dir instead ??
I imagine that I can put a script in the "Plugins" dir, that appends the path
File.expand_path("~/repos/proj")to Ruby's$LOAD_PATHarray, so I can load and debug directly from there.Is this what others are doing when they use Git for SketchUp Ruby development ???

I like to use the Issues BitBucket service on my repos - so I can mark issues as solved on push.

Great Idea, I was wondering how to do that. Done.
