### Updating remote VCS project dependencies
|
|
|
|
sbt now supports automatic updating of remote VCS project dependencies
|
|
(Git, Mercurial, Subversion) via a configurable update strategy.
|
|
|
|
By default the strategy is `Manual` — remote projects are never updated
|
|
automatically during `update`. To change this, set `repositoryUpdateStrategy`
|
|
per dependency:
|
|
|
|
```scala
|
|
lazy val dep = RootProject(uri("git:file:///path/to/repo"))
|
|
|
|
lazy val root = project.dependsOn(dep).settings(
|
|
// Pull latest on every `update`:
|
|
dep / repositoryUpdateStrategy := RepositoryUpdateStrategy.Always,
|
|
// Or pull at most once per hour:
|
|
dep / repositoryUpdateStrategy := RepositoryUpdateStrategy.Every(1.hour),
|
|
)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
When changes are detected, sbt will warn that a `reload` is needed to pick
|
|
up the new sources.
|
|
|
|
The `updateRemoteProjects` command force-updates all remote VCS dependencies
|
|
regardless of strategy and automatically reloads the build.
