Code Repository

+ +

+As of December 5, 2006, Mesa is using +git +as its source code management system. +CVS was used previously. +The old CVS repository should no longer be used. +

+ +The master git repository is hosted on +freedesktop.org. +

+ +

+You may access the repository either as an +anonymous user (read-only) or as a +developer +(read/write). +

+ +

+You may also +browse the git repository. +

+ + + +

Anonymous git Access

+ +

+To get the Mesa sources anonymously (read-only): +

+ +
    +
  1. Install the git software on your computer if needed.

    +
  2. Get an initial, local copy of the repository with: + 
    +    git clone git://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/mesa/mesa
+
    +
  3. Later, you can update your tree from the master repository with: + 
    +    git pull origin
+
    +
+ + + +

Developer git Access

+ +

+Mesa developers need to first have an account on +freedesktop.org. +To get an account, please ask Brian or the other Mesa developers for +permission. +Then, if there are no objections, follow this + +procedure. +

+ +

+Once your account is established: +

+ +
    +
  1. Install the git software on your computer if needed.

    +
  2. Get an initial, local copy of the repository with: + 
    +    git clone git+ssh://username@git.freedesktop.org/git/mesa/mesa
+
    + Replace username with your actual login name.

    +
  3. Later, you can update your tree from the master repository with: + 
    +    git pull origin
+
    +
+ + + +

Development Branches

+ +

+At any given time, there may be several active branches in Mesa's +repository. +Generally, the trunk contains the latest development (unstable) +code while a branch has the latest stable code. +

+ +

+Questions about active Mesa development branches should be posted to +the mesa3d-dev mailing list. +
