Hello _X_,

the "qsys-generate" command builds your qsys system from a .qsys file: 


qsys-generate --synthesis=VERILOG soc.qsys

"qmegawiz" to build your megawizard component: 


qmegawiz -silent OPTIONAL_FILES=NONE pll.v

These commands can be used from a console or called from a .tcl script.

There is no need to store the .qip file in the repository as this and the .sip files are generated with above commands from your <module>.v (or .vhd).
