Using mercurial for web-design version control (dealing with images)
- by Acorn
I'm very new to Version Control, and I was wondering if I could get some advice on how it can fit into website design.
At the moment I'm working on a typical, simple website that includes images:
A few .html files and a .css file
One folder full of photographs
Another folder with the corresponding thumbnails
Can I just put the whole lot in a repository? Or is there a better way I could apply Version Control to it? How should I deal with the images?
edit:
How well will it work with changes to the images? What if I decide to try and optimise my photographs or resize them. I wont be able to see what exactly changed about the images, should comments be enough to keep track of that?
