Console Tool do data exchange with 3rd party information system.

Both application(MVC and Console Tool) depend from BL Library.

In future I need build many MVC Apps using BL Library and Console Tool.

    A setup like the one presented below could be suited for developing multiple WebSite – projects that share dependency to your Lib & ConsoleApp:

    BLLib
    Development
        DEV <-- branch 
            Sources
                BLLib
    MAIN <-- branch
        Sources
            BLLib

ConsoleTool
    Development
        DEV <-- branch 
            Sources
                ConsoleTool
    MAIN <-- branch
        Sources
            ConsoleTool

WebSite
    Development
        DEV <-- branch 
            SharedSources
                BLLib_branch
                ConsoleTool_branch 
            Sources
                WebSite
    MAIN <-- branch
        SharedSources
            BLLib <-- merged folder from $/../BLLib/MAIN/Sources/BLLib
            ConsoleTool <-- merged folder from $/../ConsoleTool
        Sources
            WebSite

    Each \DEV-branch is the ground where changes happen & \MAIN is a stable line, that is also useful in project-wide merges.

    That’s a pretty basic setup, in general, it’s worth exploring this fantastic guide in order to check what better fits your needs.
