GIT access

Allegro’s source code is maintained in a GIT repository. You can get clients for most platforms at http://git-scm.com, and there is good documentation like the Reference Manual.

The source repository is hosted at GitHub: https://github.com/liballeg/allegro5

You can clone the repository from either of these two URLs:

https://github.com/liballeg/allegro5.git
git@github.com:liballeg/allegro5.git

By default you will be on the master branch. You can change the branch from your working tree like this:

git checkout 5.0
git checkout 4.4
git checkout master

Usage

A quick reminder how to use git.

To get the repository:

git clone https://github.com/liballeg/allegro5.git

Remember to tell git your name and email address:

git config --global user.name "My Name"
git config --global user.email "USERNAME@example.net"

To make sure you’re in the right branch and have the latest changes:

cd allegro
git checkout master
git pull --rebase origin master

To locally commit your changes:

git add -p
git commit -v

To share your local commit (send as attachments to the Allegro developers mailing list):

git format-patch HEAD^

For committers, to push changes on the local master branch to the remote master branch:

git push origin master
