Introduction

Recently Subversion got replaced with git. Git is the latest thing in town and offers a few improvements to subversion.

Git manages changes for the rubyripper project. With each 'commit' (change) a diff will be created against the previous revision. When hunting down some bugs, it can be usefull to get the latest revision to see if it fixes your particular problem. Due to the scripting characteristic of ruby you do not have to install it on your system just to run rubyripper!

Here follows the commands you have to run in a terminal/konsole. The chosen directories are just an example. And of course you need to install git before doing this!

Initial Checkout

cd $HOME
git clone git://github.com/rubyripperdev/rubyripper.git

Update existing repository

cd $HOME/rubyripper
git pull

Create / update language files (optional)

Make sure you've installed the dependency list in the README file

./configure --update-lang
