[pgrouting-dev] RE: New website for review

Mon Nov 15 00:13:19 EST 2010

Good point, Jordan!

I added a release notes page as on TRAC and the website should update
automatically within the next hour.

Steve, I have also edited the "Developer" page and added links to Git
manuals as well as a section "How to contribute" with a link to a page, that
needs to be filled with content:
http://update.pgrouting.org/docs/howto/contribute.html

I also edited the "git clone URL's":

For those, who have read/write access the command is:

git clone git at github.com:pgRouting/pgrouting.git

You need to have a SSH key registered.

If you just want to get a local copy without writing back to the repository:

git clone git://github.com/pgRouting/pgrouting.git pgrouting

If you want to have a local copy and use GitHub to send "Pull Requests", you
need to

   1. Create an account on Github
   2. Fork the repository into your account
   3. Work on the forked repository
   4. Send "Pull Requests" to contribute changes back to the main repository

That's how I understand how it should work, but I'm not a Git professional
either.
