django - Do you version control the invidual apps or the whole project or both?

Question

OK, so I have a Django project. I was wondering if I'm supposed to put each app in its own git repository, or is it better to just put the whole project into a git repository, or whether I should have a git repo for each app and also a git repo for the project?

Thanks.

Answer 1

It really depends on whether those reusable apps are actually going to be reused outside of the project or not?

The only reason you might need it in a different repo is if other projects with seperate repos might need to use it. But you can always split it out later. Making a git repo is cheap so it's one of those things you can do later if it becomes necessary. Making things complicated up front is just going to frustrate you later so feel free to wait till you know it's necessary

YAGNI it's for more than just code.
