Relative paths for project

[sholan]

I noticed there is no possibility to create a project based on a relative path. Which makes the portable aspect of netbeans-portable really limited.

Is there a workaround or a universal way to solve this ?

I'm working on a script (run from git portable) which finds/replaces paths

https://github.com/jgonyea/portableDevEnvironment/blob/develop/startDev.sh

I think that should do what you want.

I see, the idea is really nice, have you considered/searched for a way to have the startDev.sh be run at PortableApps.com startup ?

[jgonyea]

I guess you could have Git Portable run on startup, having it point to git-bash instead of git-gui, and then make .bash_profile run the script?

I guess this is a solution, would be nice if PortableApps.com created somekind a "standard" way to refactor software related configuration "on launch" available for portablizers, could make things easier for everyone.

I will look into this.

FYI, you also need to clear the cache, as there are full paths stored there. My script now reflects removing that as well.
