This is an example add-on that demonstrates how to use CG Cookie CookieCutter to create add-ons for Blender 2.79b.
To clone this add-on example:
git clone --recursive git@github.com:cgcookie/extrucut.git
To create a new add-on using CookieCutter:
# create new addon folder
mkdir newaddon
cd newaddon
# initialize as new git repo
git init .
# add CC addon_common as submodule
git submodule add git@github.com:CGCookie/addon_common.git addon_common
git submodule update --init --recursive
To update the addon_common:
# update CC addon-common
cd newaddon
git submodule foreach git pull origin master
