<h3>Source code versioning system</h3>
|

|

<p>The source code for Window Maker is contained in a <a href="http://git-scm.com/">git</a> repository located <a href=
|
||||
"http://repo.or.cz/w/wmaker-crm.git">here</a>. Git is very convenient for our purposes and you can find more

information about it on the mentioned link. To obtain a full-fledged copy of the repository do this:<br /></p>

<p>git clone git://repo.or.cz/wmaker-crm.git<br /></p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p> 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.</p>

<p>If your patch is really good and important, feel free to send it to the mailing list at

wmaker-dev@lists.windowmaker.org anyway in whatever form most suits you. But please consider the fact that patches sent

in odd formats induce extra work for who applies them.</p>

<p>Last but not least, patches doing code cleanups are <strong>STRONGLY</strong> encouraged. Please go ahead! The risks
|

of introducing regressions when doing cleanups exists, but if you also follow the practice of having a patch for each
|
||||
unrelated change you do, the eventuall regressions can be easily found and reverted.</p>
