Branches
We use subversion for our development. Currently, the active branches are:
- 8.4.1 (svn trunk): The stable version.
- 8.3.4 (svn 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.
- 8.5 (svn branches/gcomprixo): This is where all the current OLPC/XO branch. It's a major refactoring to allow us to provide independent activities to the OLPC project, and others.
Technology test:
- svn branches/gcomprixogoo, based on gcomprixo branch, port of GCompris to use the goocanvas instead of the gnomecanvas+libart. Read the API here.
To get GCompris from subversion:
svn co http://svn.gnome.org/svn/gcompris/trunk gcompris
