Description

Linked from github: https://github.com/redmine/redmine/pull/77

I have renamed config/settings.yml to config/settings.yml.example and ignored config/settings.yml in .gitignore and .hgignore.

The main reason I would like to see this included in the repository is to be able to simply update redmine via git/hg.

As an example, I am using redmine-like-a-boss, which always includes redmine in the last stable version as a submodule. I want to be able to simply git checkout LATEST_TAG if a newer version is released and don't worry about that my settings.yml file will be overwritten by a pull.

I guess others will probably also want to use redmine update mechanisms via git pull or an equivalent for hg.

The only drawback of this pull request is that you might need to extend the redmine installation documentation with

cp config/settings.yml.example config/settings.yml

But afterwards, the update management will be easier.

Thanks
