Question about organizing files: Version Control Github - Unity

Hi. does anyone know the way how to organize unity project on github like this:
after github then, the path will be GameProjects/Car/

Inside 'Car' file:
.git
Assets
Packages
ProjectSettings
.DS_store
.gitignore

on Github.com, 'GameProjects' should be the main file, not the 'car' project name.
What i know so far is that when making a repository on github, then the file itself is the project name. Not the file that containing many projects. If possible i want to make a file that can track many projects, much easier.

 

I'm not sure if I understood you correctly. If you want to store many projects in one repository all you need to do is below.

1. Create GameProjects as a repository, here will be your git files that track all future projects.
2. In Unity Hub when you create a new project you just go to the GameProjects directory. Inside will be created project folder Car for example.

In the above style, I create all my projects (but in one repo, one project). So I have for example "2d-sandbox" repository folder and inside is a Unity project folder "2D Sandbox".

Edit: That was my source model with Git and Unity (look at the edition of the default gitignore file).

 

Hi~, thanks for the reply.
what i'm trying to say is that, i want for one repo, can have many projects, and each project can have their on git files (with Unity git ignore) if possible. (if the rules for github is that only one repo can have one set of git files, then probably not under my knowledge. )

For the style that you mention i don't know it'll work or not since one project is kinda in a big file and without unity git ignore, can't upload the project on github.

*and sorry for my bad english as well X3

 

As I said you can do this by making one repo folder GameProjects, and setting many Unity projects inside in separate folders Game1, Game2, etc. You can make one gitignore (without a slash at the beginning of the directory) or just throw to each folder a separate gitignore file.

Default ignore file from GitHub.

Code (CSharp):

1. # This .gitignore file should be placed at the root of your Unity project directory
2. #
3. # Get latest from https://github.com/github/gitignore/blob/main/Unity.gitignore
4. #
5. /[Ll]ibrary/
6. /[Tt]emp/
7. /[Oo]bj/
8. /[Bb]uild/
9. /[Bb]uilds/
10. /[Ll]ogs/
11. /[Uu]ser[Ss]ettings/
12.  
13. # MemoryCaptures can get excessive in size.
14. # They also could contain extremely sensitive data
15. /[Mm]emoryCaptures/
16.  
17. # Recordings can get excessive in size
18. /[Rr]ecordings/
19.  
20. # Uncomment this line if you wish to ignore the asset store tools plugin
21. # /[Aa]ssets/AssetStoreTools*
22.  
23. # Autogenerated Jetbrains Rider plugin
24. /[Aa]ssets/Plugins/Editor/JetBrains*
25.  
26. # Visual Studio cache directory
27. .vs/
28.  
29. # Gradle cache directory
30. .gradle/
31.  
32. # Autogenerated VS/MD/Consulo solution and project files
33. ExportedObj/
34. .consulo/
35. *.csproj
36. *.unityproj
37. *.sln
38. *.suo
39. *.tmp
40. *.user
41. *.userprefs
42. *.pidb
43. *.booproj
44. *.svd
45. *.pdb
46. *.mdb
47. *.opendb
48. *.VC.db
49.  
50. # Unity3D generated meta files
51. *.pidb.meta
52. *.pdb.meta
53. *.mdb.meta
54.  
55. # Unity3D generated file on crash reports
56. sysinfo.txt
57.  
58. # Builds
59. *.apk
60. *.aab
61. *.unitypackage
62. *.app
63.  
64. # Crashlytics generated file
65. crashlytics-build.properties
66.  
67. # Packed Addressables
68. /[Aa]ssets/[Aa]ddressable[Aa]ssets[Dd]ata/*/*.bin*
69.  
70. # Temporary auto-generated Android Assets
71. /[Aa]ssets/[Ss]treamingAssets/aa.meta
72. /[Aa]ssets/[Ss]treamingAssets/aa/*
73.  

The final result will be such a directory tree.

• GameProjects
  
  • .git
  • .gitattributes
  • Game1
    • .gitignore
  • Game2
    • .gitignore
  • Game3
    • .gitignore
