A Brief Introduction to our Source Repository Layout

This document is supposed to give you some insight where you'll find what in the source repository tree. If you're familiar with Haiku already, you will notice that the tree layout to some degree mirrors the structure a Haiku installation has on disk.

Things that are built are usually put under "src", for example, there is a "data", and a "src/data" folder - the former for example contains scripts or settings ready to be copied to the Haiku image, while the latter for example contains the MIME types database that first have to be converted from a format that is easy to edit to what Haiku expects.

Using Subversion with the Haiku Source Repository

As we've already announced earlier, we're planning to switch our version control system from CVS to Subversion. While CVS is working nice basically, it's much too limited to serve as a good foundation for a project of a size like ours.

The following document should give you an introduction on how to use Subversion with our repository - it will not provide you with many details, but with some pointers in case you want to know more about Subversion. The current version of Subversion is 1.1.3.
