Hi @sonuk85184451 , you can follow the suggestions given below by Community Members and one or the other approach may best suit your requirements.

I'm adding up a link how we did the AEMaaCS setup for future references. https://experienceleague.adobe.com/docs/experience-manager-cloud-service/content/implementing/using-cloud-manager/managing-code/working-with-multiple-source-git-repositories.html?lang=en

Update the filters.xml (ui.apps/src/main/content/META-INF/vault/filter.xml) accordingly.

Keep paths which you want to deploy in filter.xml

Check both filter.xml files from each repo.

Example:

repo 1 filter.xml has /apps/demosite and /apps/wknd and if you to deploy only /apps/demosite from this repo then remove /apps/wknd from filters. Similarly in other repo as well.

Hi @sonuk85184451

I'm hoping since you're having 2 projects, that most likely could be in 2 different repos.
If so, the best possible approach is to deploy via GIT submodule.

https://experienceleague.adobe.com/docs/experience-manager-cloud-service/content/implementing/using-cloud-manager/managing-code/cloud-manager-repositories.html?lang=en

What happens is when you start deployment, cloud service build image step takes fresh image every single time and builds /apps so whatever it was previously is wiped off and takes latest code from project.

So, if you're going to deploy 2 projects separately then it's going to wipe the repo with existing ones and deploy the one which is present in current repo.

With Git submodule approach - it binds multiple repos in single project and deploy both at same time hence both projects are going to be present during deployment.

Hello,

If you created separate projects in different GIT the deployment will override the previous one. to overcome this better create both projects as sub module suggested by others and make it under by creating a parent project.

like project C has sub modules like A & B. hope this works.
