Branches
We use git for our development. Currently, the active branches are:
- 8.4.X (git master): The stable version. Maintenance mode.
- 8.3.4 (git branches/GCOMPRIS_8_3): The stable version for Windows. This version exist only because I have not yet updated my build environment on Windows to support the gstreamer audio backend. Until I can build the 8.4 on Windows, I backport the main fixes and features from 8.4 in this branch.
- 8.XO (git origin/gcomprixo): This is the current OLPC XO branch. It's a major refactoring to allow us to provide independent activities to the OLPC project, and others.
- 8.5 (git origin/gcomprixogoo): This is based on the OLPC XO branch but uses the goocanvas instead of the gnomecanvas+libart. This is where the new code is going.
To get GCompris from git:
git clone git://git.gnome.org/gcompris
cd gcompris
sh autogen.sh && make
To get GCompris development branch from subversion:
git clone git://git.gnome.org/gcompris
cd gcompris
git checkout -b gcomprixogoo origin/gcomprixogo
