Regards, Gleb Hi Gleb, I managed to get through the CMakeLists.txt deps without too much trouble; however, the Git integration is causing some issues, see the following output from make: [ 70%] Building CXX object src/CMakeFiles/basket.dir/application.cpp.o /home/etriaph/Projects/CPP/basket/src/application.cpp: In constructor ‘Application::Application(int, char**)’: /home/etriaph/Projects/CPP/basket/src/application.cpp:55:26: error: ‘git_threads_init’ was not declared in this scope git_threads_init(); ^ /home/etriaph/Projects/CPP/basket/src/application.cpp: In destructor ‘virtual Application::~Application()’: /home/etriaph/Projects/CPP/basket/src/application.cpp:62:30: error: ‘git_threads_shutdown’ was not declared in this scope git_threads_shutdown(); ^ src/CMakeFiles/basket.dir/build.make:100: recipe for target 'src/CMakeFiles/basket.dir/application.cpp.o' failed make[2]: *** [src/CMakeFiles/basket.dir/application.cpp.o] Error 1 CMakeFiles/Makefile2:179: recipe for target 'src/CMakeFiles/basket.dir/all' failed make[1]: *** [src/CMakeFiles/basket.dir/all] Error 2 Makefile:127: recipe for target 'all' failed make: *** [all] Error 2 I did a bit of reading and found the following: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/27998122/libgit2-and-qt-error[1] I tried adding git_libgit2_init(); prior to your call to git_threads_init() in Application::Application() but I still get this error.
