RE: Fork or branch?

Hi!

Will you be sharing anything between the projects? If you have data that will be shared between the two different implementations it would be enough with just a simple directory structure while still inside the same git repo.

repo.git:
 - <python based>
 - <c based>
 - ... 
 - <some other language based>
 - shared_data

Just create a new branch on the current code based and start working on the C based one. Then you can merge it back to the "main" code line if it works out.

Good luck!

Subject: Fork or branch?

I am new to git and understand most of it except for merge. My question is - if I have project X on branch master and its coded in python but I then want to take that same project and code it in say C or C++ would I fork or branch the project?
