Greenstone Subversion (SVN) Repository

The Greenstone source code is kept under version-control in a subversion repository. For information about using SVN see this page, or the subversion book.

• Repository Root: http://svn.greenstone.org
• Repository Browser: http://trac.greenstone.org/browser

The basic structure of the repository is

http://svn.greenstone.org/

• deprecated Some code that is no longer used
• documentation Legacy manuals and tutorial source
• documented-examples Source for the greenstone 2 documented example collections
• gs2-extensions A collection of extensions to enhance the functionality of Greenstone 2, such as pdf-box, imagemagick, gnome-lib etc
• gs3-extensions A collection of extensions to enhance the functionality of Greenstone 3, such as solr, pharos image search, MAT (metadata analysis tool) etc
• local A handy set of setup script files for Greenstone 2 and 3 on different operating systems.
• main The main source code area
• other-projects Other related projects that are not part of Greenstone
• test-collections Some collections that we use for testing Greenstone

The main area is where the core source code lives. It is made up of branches, tags and trunk. The trunk is the main line of development of the source code. Tags are used to mark the repository at each release point. Branches are used to develop features on the sideline without disrupting the main trunk.

The important projects inside main are:

http://svn.greenstone.org/main/trunk/

• gli
• greenstone2
• greenstone3
• gs2build

gs2build is a package of greenstone 2 collection building code that is used by the greenstone 3 software.

All of the line endings in the repository files are linux-style (\n) line endings. We ask that you do not check in files which do not conform to this standard. Therefore, we recommend finding a suitable editor for your platform, which uses this style of line ending.
