Do android and ios folder need to commit to svn?

I believe /build .packages are not to be committed.

I haven't found detailed docs on this topic. I only find this https://www.dartlang.org/guides/libraries/private-files

I'm aware there is .gitignore file but I think this file is ignored because I'm using TortoiseSVN. Every time I commit I got like 200+ files committed. And may affect other users when they do update.

Do android and ios folder need to commit to svn?

Yes, always comit these folders to svn(but you can skip some auto generated files)

There are three main folders in the Flutter project: lib, android and ios.

lib takes care of your Dart files. The Android and iOS folders exist to actually build an app on those respective platforms with the Dart files running on them. They also help you add permissions and platform-specific functionality to your project. When you run a Flutter project, it builds depending on which emulator or device it is running on, doing a Gradle or XCode build using the folders inside it.

In short, those folders are entire apps which set the stage for the Flutter code to run.

Don’t commit the following files and directories:

# See https://www.dartlang.org/tools/private-files.html

# Files and directories created by pub
.packages
.pub/
build/
# If you're building an application, you may want to check-in your pubspec.lock
pubspec.lock

# Directory created by dartdoc
# If you don't generate documentation locally you can remove this line.
doc/api/

From flutter create:

.DS_Store
.atom/
.idea
.packages
.pub/
build/
ios/.generated/
packages
pubspec.lock
.flutter-plugins

For more information please refer this to check which files are auto generated.

Hope this will helps you

If you create a Flutter project it contains 3 .gitignore files.
One in the project root and one in each ios/ and android/.
These files already cover most cases.

update

They unified these 3 .gitignore into a single one

*.lock

*.pyc

  • I only have 1 .gitignore on the root....And because I'm using svn I think this file is "ignored" too :) – stuckedunderflow Nov 28 '18 at 08:30

    The last time I checked they were 3 but I remember seeing discussions that they should be merged and in a newly created project there is now only 1 such file. I updated my answer. – Günter Zöchbauer Nov 28 '18 at 08:34
  • Can I use svn to take this .gitignore file? – stuckedunderflow Nov 28 '18 at 08:37

    There seems to be something similar https://stackoverflow.com/questions/11293539/equivalent-of-gitignore-file-with-subversion. You would need to convert it yourself – Günter Zöchbauer Nov 28 '18 at 08:40

    what about ios/build/ folder, ios/Podfile and ios/Podfile.lock file? – Alex Roy Jul 29 '20 at 15:17
  • Lockfiles for application projects depends on your preferences. For published packages you usually should not commit them. Otherwise check https://github.com/flutter/gallery/blob/master/.gitignore That file is kept updated. – Günter Zöchbauer Jul 29 '20 at 15:24
