Restoring a site

• clone locally, under your server root
• rename configuration.onl.php to configuration.php, and edit to adapt to your local station

in case you have to restore a site from scratch (specify the files to import in phpmyadmin, etc. ) notice that now we have 2 dumps for the same database. Something like:

• {db_name}_structure.sql > includes only database structure
• {db_name}_data.sql > includes the data for db tables

first time you setup a site you need to import data manually (or manually setup configuration file because you don't have access to redGIT GUI):

• import first structure and then data
• if you are restoring database from redGIT GUI it does that automatically also from command line ( php libraries/redgit/cli/restore.php )
