-- GIT.txt --
The source code of ngIRCd is maintained using git, the stupid content
tracker.
I. 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. Please see the
file INSTALL for details!
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. List homepage:

III. Write Access
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If you want to contribute a couple of patches and write access to the git
repository would be handy, please contact Alex Barton, <alex@barton.de>.
