I didn't get any overlay change when my teammates make changes or add a new file to my project.
Should I regularly update my project to keep track with the updates made? Or am I missing any configuration part that shows a new overlay whenever any of my teammates makes a change?
Note: I get red and other overlays correctly whenever I make changes to files.
Yes, you would need to do periodic updates to get changes from you team members. The trigger for this could also be one of the folloiwng.
A notification from the continuous integration when a build containing changes from other team members has been done.
A post-commit hook in your subversion server which emails all interested parties whenever there is a check-in.

How often is there a check on changes to the source data for the hook to trigger?
We've only managed to get it to trigger automatically / instantly once.
We've tried deleting and reconnecting the source, trying different sources and making new projects.
Sometimes, it just doesn't trigger at all.
Anything that might shed light would be a great help.
The frequency of source data check in Supernova Hooks varies.
But if you're having trouble with the hook triggering once or not at all, here's what you can check:
Double-check that the hook is set up and configured to trigger based
on the changes you want to see.
Make sure there aren't any network/firewall blocks preventing the
hook from triggering.
Check if the source data is being updated correctly and if those
changes are reflected in the hook.
If all else fails, hit up the Supernova support team for help.
And, don't forget, the issue might be with Figma, not Supernova. So, check their docs and support as well.
I have a project running on a remote server. I cloned it into the server to run. Problem is everytime I make a change to the code via git, I have to go into the remote server delete the folder and clone it once again. How can it automatically detect a change in the repo and update it?
You're looking for what's called continuous deployment|delivery.
Since you're using GitHub, you may want to look at GitHub Actions. This is one of many mechanisms that are available.
You can configure Actions to trigger various actions (including building, testing and deployment of your code [to the Digital Ocean droplet]) every time you make a commit.
I’m trying to set up GitLab CI/CD for an old client-side project that makes use of Grunt (https://github.com/yeoman/generator-angular).
Up to now the deployment worked like this:
run ’$ grunt build’ locally which built the project and created files in a ‘dist’ folder in the root of the project
commit changes
changes pulled onto production server
After creating the .gitlab-ci.yml and making a commit, the GitLab CI/CD job passes but the files in the ‘dist’ folder in the repository are not updated. If I define an artifact, I will get the changed files in the download. However I would prefer the files in ‘dist’ folder in the to be updated so we can carry on with the same workflow which suits us. Is this achievable?
I don't think commiting into your repo inside a pipeline is a good idea. Version control wouldn't be as clear, some people have automatic pipeline trigger when their repo is pushed, that'd trigger a loop of pipelines.
Instead, you might reorganize your environment to use Docker, there are numerous reasons for using Docker in a professional and development environments. To name just a few: that'd enable you to save the freshly built project into a registry and reuse it whenever needed right with the version you require and with the desired /dist inside. So that you can easily run it in multiple places, scale it, manage it etc.
If you changed to Docker you wouldn't actually have to do a thing in order to have the dist persistent, just push the image to the registry after the build is done.
But to actually answer your question:
There is a feature request hanging for a very long time for the same problem you asked about: here. Currently there is no safe and professional way to do it as GitLab members state. Although you can push back changes as one of the GitLab members suggested (Kamil Trzciński):
git push http://gitlab.com/group/project.git HEAD:my-branch
Just put it in your script section inside gitlab-ci file.
There are more hack'y methods presented there, but be sure to acknowledge risks that come with them (pipelines are more error prone and if configured in a wrong way, they might for example publish some confidential information and trigger an infinite pipelines loop to name a few).
I hope you found this useful.
I have an app that I have been working on and I did a bunch of changes and then realized later I should have been adding versioning to the Core Data model. So I'm trying to go back and do that now.
Basic information:
I think everything I've done would fall under the lightweight migration feature.
I'm using git
I already have the app in user's hands
My question is: what is the easiest way to do this?
Since I'm using git, could I simply checkout the data model from when I submitted it to apple, create a new version for it, and add my changes? My main fear with this idea is that my project.pbxproj file would be incorrect. Would this an issue? Is there a way to get around this?
IF I could do this, would I need to recreate my class files or would that be ok (assuming I get it back to being identical to what I currently have).
IF I CAN'T do this, then what can I do? If its a matter of starting from the last version I pushed to Apple and applying changes I guess I should look into doing it with git rebase, right?
This has nothing to do with git.
You need to create a new version of your app, provide the new data model, set it for lightweight migration and then release it as an update. Core Data will basically assume that any model without version info is version zero and attempt a migration to the new version.
When the user downloads the update, the automatic migration will trigger the first time the app runs.
Creating a new version means nothing more than changing the version number in the project info. When submitted, that will trigger the upgrade and the migration.
I've been doing some research into finally automating our Development builds and still have one nagging question that I'm hoping the StackOverflow community can solve for me.
My understanding is that an IntervalTrigger when setup properly will check VSS every X seconds for changes and if it finds a modified file, will run my tasks. One of my tasks would be to checkout the AssemblyInfo files and update the version numbers. After these files are updated they would be checked back into VSS.
Thinking about this solution it doesn't make much sense because in my mind, I'm forcing the check for changed files to true every time the trigger fires. Am I missing something here? Is there a way of doing this without triggering an automatic build on the AssemblyInfo check-in?
You can use a Filtered Source Control Block to exclude certain files from the trigger.
I just posted a bunch about my default build process here which may be of some interest to you: SVN Website Development and Deployment Solution
The way I usually configure my projects with CC.NET is to have two project blocks per solution. One configured as an interval trigger that does nothing more than get the latest from my repository, build the solution, and run unit tests. The other is a schedule trigger that does all the things the other one does, but actually publishes a build. This includes changing version numbers, publishing files, etc. This might work in your case, since the change in version would cause the interval project to trigger, but only once.
Checking the automatically generated AssemblyInfo into the version control system is a bad idea, don't do it. You'll get a lot of noise (50% of all commits!) in your history. Also, it does not give you any new information - you can always pull this from VCS. Have your build script autogenerate those files is a good practice, but don't push those changes back!
