Here are some pieces of information regarding development in Window Maker.

- -

Source code versioning system

- -

The source code for Window Maker is contained in a git repository located here. To obtain a full-fledged copy of the repository do this:

- -

git clone git://repo.or.cz/wmaker-crm.git

- -

There are two main branches in the repository, called 'master' and 'next'. The purpose of the 'next' branch is to add - and extra layer of testing before the patches hit the 'master' branch. It is rebased when needed. The 'master' branch - should ideally never be rebased -- if it is, run to the nearest anti-nuclear bunker.

- -

Submitting patches

- -

The Window Maker source code follows the - - coding style of the linux kernel. Respect it when submitting patches.

- -

If you are not familiar with git, take a look at the git homepage - -- it contains the kind of documentation you need to get started. You should also read the file contained - in the Window Maker repository The perfect Window Maker patch - which gives you further details about patches to Window Maker.

- -

Patches not submitted according to the above guidelines will not be accepted.

- -

Last but not least, patches doing code cleanups are STRONGLY encouraged.

- -

Git repository for dockapps

- -

There is also a git repository containing a few dockapps which - apparently have no maintainers anymore. Patches for those dockapps (or to include more apps) can also be sent to - wmaker-dev@lists.windowmaker.org.
