Getting the source code +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +To access the source tree anonymously, run: + + $ git clone git://ngircd.barton.de/ngircd.git + +Thereby a new folder "ngircd" will be created containing all the individual +source files. + +The newly created directory ("ngircd") is the "working directory", all +git commands will be executed from within this directory in the future. + +Please note: When checking out a fresh copy of ngIRCd using git, the +configure script doesn't exist; you have to run the autogen.sh shell script +(which is included in the source tree) to generate it. This requires you to +have GNU automake and GNU autoconf installed on your system. + +To update the git tree: + + $ git pull + +This retrieves all changes and merges them into the current branch. + +II. Contributing +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +Patches should be sent to the ngircd mailing list.
