These notes intend to help people working on the checked-out sources.
These requirements do not apply when building from a distribution tarball.
* First Git checkout
You can get a copy of the source repository like this:
$ git clone git://git.sv.gnu.org/mcron
$ cd mcron
The next step is to get and check other files needed to build, which are
extracted from other source packages:
$ ./bootstrap
And there you are! Just
$ ./configure
$ make
At this point, there should be no difference between your local copy, and the
Git master copy:
$ git diff
should output no difference.
Enjoy!
* Submitting patches
If you develop a fix or a new feature, please send it to the appropriate
bug-reporting address as reported by the --help option of each program. One
way to do this is to use vc-dwim <http://www.gnu.org/software/vc-dwim/>), as
follows.
Run the command "vc-dwim --help", copy its definition of the
"git-changelog-symlink-init" function into your shell, and then run this
function at the top-level directory of the package.
Edit the (empty) ChangeLog file that this command creates, creating a
properly-formatted entry according to the GNU coding standards
<http://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/Change-Logs.html>.
Make your changes.
Run the command "vc-dwim" and make sure its output (the diff of all your
changes) looks good.
Run "vc-dwim --commit".
Run the command "git format-patch --stdout -1", and email its output in,
using the output's subject line.
