Archiving the Installation Scripts
After you verify that the installation of your application is valid, Oracle recommends that you archive your installation scripts in a source code control system.
Before doing so, add comments to each file, documenting its creation date and purpose. If you ever must deploy the same application to another environment, you can use these archived files.
