setting up dependencies..

by sergio_101

if i have a project where i am working with a small team, is there any way i can automagically let everyone know about the dependencies? a bundler sort of this? this would also allow me build up a new image with my project quickly.. thanks! -- ---- peace, sergio photographer, journalist, visionary http://www.ThoseOptimizeGuys.com http://www.CodingForHire.com http://www.coffee-black.com http://www.painlessfrugality.com http://www.twitter.com/sergio_101 http://www.facebook.com/sergio101

i suppose you could make a method that creates itself with some data filled in.. that might work, too..
