This method lets you clone project anywhere on your local disk, +- Path mapping: apply when the xds-server is running locally. This method uses a volume shared between your host and the server, typically `$HOME/xds-workspace` directory. It is much more efficient as there is no replication onto the server ; but you must clone project under the shared directory (`$HOME/xds-workspace` is a good choice because it is shared by default. To create more shared volumes, See --volume option of [container creation script](http://docs.automotivelinux.org/docs/devguides/en/dev/reference/xds/part-1/1-1_install-xds-server-docker.html#create-and-start-a-new-container) ) + +### Which one should I choose ? + +It depends on your [deployment setup](http://docs.automotivelinux.org/docs/devguides/en/dev/reference/xds/part-1/0_Abstract.html) (Standalone, On-Premise or SaaS). -- Cloud sync: you can clone project anywhere on your local disk, -- Path mapping: you must clone project into `$HOME/xds-workspace` directory. +* Standalone : use local path mapping.
