Question

yaml-macros should not be packed

shigma opened this issue 6 years ago · comments

yaml-macros file is the source file and sublime-syntax is the generated one. In my opinion, to "gitignore" the sublime-syntax file and to "no-sublime-package" the yaml-macros file is a better practice.

Not really an option. If the built file was excluded, then every installation would have to build manually with YAML Macros, which is an absolute no-go UX-wise.

Thanks for clarifying @FichteFoll

@shigma you're right in the sense that it doesn't make sense to have a repo contain a generated file, but that is better for projects you have to compile/build. Github repos are used as sources for package control.

It's the same way you will find compiled JS and CSS files for vue but this is used for npm.
