Currently I use Git (with Git Extensions for Visual Studio) as version control system of my application.
My application consists of 4 projects in VS2010 inside one solutions and I have created 4 different git repositories. However, every time I want to commit my complete solution, I have to commit all 4 projects, one by one.
The commit option is only selectable when a project in Visual Studio is selected, but not when the complete solution is selected. Since I generally change 2 or 3 projects at a time, it would be easier if I could commit the solution instead of 4 individual projects (main reason is that I only have to add a description once for example). E.g. one of the projects is the unit tests project which typically changes when adding files in the other projects.
I couldn’t find a way to have a single Git repository for a complete solution… is this possible or is there a reason why this is not possible, or a better alternative?
It seems that I used some wrong directory because one of these projects somehow stores all information to the GIT database.
I still have to get rid of the other three, but I’m afraid I will lose history information so I leave it as it is now.
