Description

In almost every project I have worked on, there were always a couple of files here and there that are checked into the version control, but have to be modified according to everyone’s local environment. With conventional centralized version control, they can become quite a pain to manage — we have to condition ourselves to remember to ignore them during diff’ing, always be careful not to check the local versions in, and deal with the mess when we have to actually check into those files changes which do need to be shared. This blog post tries to present a approach that makes it easier and less error prone, using git.
