> Can you remind me how to clone that repo ? Basic documentation for cloning the LinuxCNC repository is given in of the documentation at: http://linuxcnc.org/docs/2.7/html/code/contributing-to-linuxcnc.html
Specifcally, see: 4.1. LinuxCNC official git repo as available here: Quoting: Anyone can get a read-only copy of the LinuxCNC source tree via git: $ git clone git://git.linuxcnc.org/git/linuxcnc.git linuxcnc-dev If you are a developer with push access, the ssh clone command is: $ git clone ssh://[email protected]/git/linuxcnc.git linuxcnc-dev After cloning the repository (all branches), then one (either developer or any user) would checkout the specific new branch: $ git checkout ncam_for_2.7 # checkout the branch $ git branch ncam_for_2.7 # use the branch (Others can give better help with git than me) > I think everyone will love this release I am very proud of and they will > want it asap. Should I ask them to manifest themselves ? Endorsement by users, particularly ones willing to test and report issues, concerns, bugs, etc. might have some influence. I think including NativeCAM depends upon 1) _your_ interest and availability to support it and 2) the goals of the Release Manager and other developers for 2.7 releases and how their goals relate to the wants and needs of the LinuxCNC community. Merging the new functionality of NativeCAM with the stable 2.7 release of LinuxCNC will certainly alter the dynamics of product releases and surely increase the work burden of those who take on the responsibility and labor in making releases. My belief is that projects are advanced when users feel that project decisions are responsive to their needs and thus are motivated to assist in whatever way they can, e.g., coding, testing, reporting issues. If users aren't interested in helping, it seems unlikely that developers will be supportive of taking on additional tasks. -- Dewey Garrett ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, SlashDot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Emc-developers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-developers
