Reproducible Builds
Being able to build a particular version of your Mule project at any time facilitates maintenance, because the versions of your projects in production are not always the latest ones.
To help achieve this goal:
-
Use source control for all your Mule projects and apply branching, merging, and tagging to them.
Do not check in Eclipse-specific files.
See Git Source Control documentation for details. -
Manage dependencies strictly by using Apache Maven and an in-house repository manager, such as Nexus.
See Maven Support in Mule documentation for guidelines.
