<p>Here are some pieces of information regarding development in Window Maker.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3>Source code versioning system</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>The source code for Window Maker is contained in a <a href="http://git-scm.com/" target="_blank">git</a> repository located <a href=
|
|
"http://repo.or.cz/w/wmaker-crm.git" target="_blank">here</a>. 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>
|
|
|
|
<h3>Submitting patches</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>The Window Maker source code follows the
|
|
<a href="http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git;a=blob_plain;f=Documentation/CodingStyle;hb=HEAD" target="_blank">
|
|
coding style of the linux kernel</a>. Respect it when submitting patches.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>If you are not familiar with git, take a look at the <a href="http://git-scm.com/" target="_blank">git homepage</a>
|
|
-- it contains the kind of documentation you need to get started. You should also read the file contained
|
|
in the Window Maker repository <a href=
|
|
"http://repo.or.cz/w/wmaker-crm.git/blob/HEAD:/The-perfect-Window-Maker-patch.txt" target="_blank">The perfect Window Maker patch</a>
|
|
which gives you further details about patches to Window Maker.</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.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3>Git repository for dockapps</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>There is also a <a href="http://repo.or.cz/w/dockapps.git" target="_blank">git repository</a> 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.</p>
