Hi all:
We are in the process of upgrading to PowerBuilder 2025 and transitioning from binary libraries to the new project solution format. Git is our source control system.
The documentation recommends starting with a fresh repository, which would mean losing our commit history. I understand why that approach makes sense for PBNative SCC, but I’m wondering:
Has anyone successfully upgraded to the PB 2025 project solution while retaining their existing Git repository and history? I would really appreciate any insights — especially around the pros and cons of keeping the same repo versus starting fresh.
