GIT and Flash Builder 4 are not playing well together

I have installed the GIT plugin for Flash Builder but for whatever reason I have not been able to connect to my remote repo.  But I have been able to do it using the command line.  There is still some benefit to having the GIT plugin installed, it shows the files that have changed. I am sure it will get fixed at some point. Until then manual works just fine and here is a cheat-sheet to help.

Store your GIT repo in the cloud

GIT is great because of the local cache but this doesn’t protect you if your computer gets fried. I am using  a GIT service called beanstalkapp to store it in the cloud. They are affordable and also have a free account for a single repository if you want to use it for 1 project to try it out.  I also think it can hook into basecamp.

Adding GIT support to Flash Builder

I found this article (part 1, part 2) that shows how to setup GIT with Flash Builder.  I like working in one IDE if possible to help simplify my life.

Switching from SVN to GIT version control

I ran across this article about GIT and Flex Projects and it makes a lot of since to work with a version control that has a local cache (GIT) so you don’t mess up files for other team members while you are working. Flex/Flash projects can get messy and if you make a few changes trying to debug something it could kill the app for others trying to do their tasks.
