Is there a decent way to maintain development of wordpress sites using the same base?
- by Joakim Johansson
We've been churning out wordpress sites for a while, and we'd like to keep a base repository that can be used when starting a new project, as well as updating existing sites with changes to the wordpress base.
Am I wrong in assuming this would be a good thing? We take care of updating the sites, so having a common base would make this easier.
I've been looking at solutions using git, such as forking a base repository and using it to pull changes to the wordpress base, but committing the site to it's own repository. Or maybe, if it's possible, storing the base as a git submodule, but this would require storing themes and plugins outside of that.
Is there any common way to go about this kind of website development?
