Circuitverse: Handling schema.rb in version control

[ankitkataria]

It is generally recommended to commit schema.rb file along with other file systems as mentioned here
Will it be a good idea to remove it from .gitignore and commit it for our project too?

I suppose it wasn't done in the past to stay away from merge conflicts but that is not the way we should go forward. I agree of having schema.rb in our version control.
@tachyons would be the best person here to respond to this.

Thanks for the suggestion.

Yes, it is the recommended practice, but it is impossible to have schema.rb in version control since we support two databases at the moment. We can add them once we drop mysql support

[ankitkataria]

I agree, the extension mentioned in the file would differ. Are we planning to drop mysql support anytime soon?

[armudgal]

@ankitkataria We are.

I'll add the schema.rb once Issue #234 is done.
