<h3>Developer Access</h3>



Because we use Git for version control, you don't need developer (ssh)

access on uclibc.org to contribute to Buildroot, but you can request

it if needed.



<p>



To obtain developer access, you will need to demonstrate you are

serious by submitting a few good patches first.  Then, you will need

to select a username to use when logging in, you will need to send me

the username you have selected, you must send me your preferred

contact email address, and finally, you must send me an ssh version 2

DSA key with 1024 bits (the default) or more.  If you do not currently

have an ssh version 2 DSA key, you can generate a key using the

command<pre>ssh-keygen -t dsa</pre> This will create the

files <pre>/home/&lt;USERNAME&gt;/ssh/id_dsa

/home/&lt;USERNAME&gt;/.ssh/id_dsa.pub</pre> It is recommended that

you generate a key with a "passphrase" for security reasons.



<p>

Make the file known to the system by running



<pre>ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_dsa</pre>



You must then send the content of 'id_dsa.pub' to me so I can setup your account.

The content of 'id_dsa' should of course be kept secret.



<p>



Once you have an account, you can use it to store Git

repositories. Simply put them in subdirectories of your ~/git, and

touch ~/git/<repo>/git-daemon-export-ok, after which the hourly

cronjob will pick them up and show them in cgit. They are also

available though git-daemon:



<pre>git clone git://git.buildroot.net/~&lt;USERNAME&gt/git/&lt;REPO&gt;</pre>

<a href="http://git-scm.org/">the Git website</a>.

<h2>Repository</h2>



The buildroot repository can be browsed online through cgit at

<a href="http://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/">http://git.buildroot.net/buildroot</a>.

To grab a copy of the repository use



<pre>

git clone git://git.buildroot.net/buildroot</pre>



Or if you're behind a firewall blocking git:



<pre>

git clone http://git.buildroot.net/git/buildroot.git</pre>



<p>



Please use the native git protocol if at all possible, as it's a lot

more efficient than HTTP.



<p>



If you are not already familiar with using Git, we recommend you visit <a

href="http://git-scm.org">the Git website</a>.



<p>



Once you've checked out a copy of the source tree, you can update your source

tree at any time so it is in sync with the latest and greatest by entering your

buildroot directory and running the command:



<pre>

git pull

</pre>



Because you've only been granted anonymous access to the tree, you won't be

able to push your changes to the repo. Changes can instead be submitted for

inclusion by posting them to the buildroot mailing list.
