## Google App Engine deployment
cp examples/app.yaml ./
cp handlers/gaehandler.py ./
Then edit ./app.yaml and replace "yourappname" with yourappname.
## Important reminder about this GIT repo
An important part of web2py is the Database Abstraction Layer (DAL). In early 2015 this was decoupled into a separate code-base ([PyDAL](https://github.com/web2py/pydal)). In terms of git, it is a sub-module of the main repository.
The use of a sub-module requires a one-time use of the --recursive flag for git clone if you are cloning web2py from scratch.
git clone --recursive https://github.com/web2py/web2py.git
If you have an existing repository, the commands below need to be executed at least once:
git submodule update --init --recursive
PyDAL uses a separate stable release cycle to the rest of web2py. PyDAL releases will use a date-naming scheme similar to Ubuntu. Issues related to PyDAL should be reported to its separate repository.
