After completing a schematic and board layout, I’d like to distribute the full project to a colleague.  I’d like to send them a single file that is self-contained (meaning all .sch files, .pcb file, custom footprints and symbols), in a way that makes it easy on the recipient.  What is the recommended approach?

At present, I have my design files (.sch, .pcb and config files) under version control.  I separately have my symbols and footprints in version control.  So a collaborator must check out the code for the board, and the code for the symbols/footprints, and then ensure that the symbol/footprint paths in the preference files align with their directory structure, etc.  In this approach, they also must get all of my custom symbols/footprints, not just the ones used in the current project.

There must be a better way.  What do you do?

James
