| + | #REDIRECT [[Guide to using Git with GEOS-Chem]] |
| − | | + | |
| − | Git is a relatively new version control system. At present (March 2010), we are considering migrating the GEOS-Chem repository from CVS to Git, for a variety of reasons:
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | *Git avoids some of the limitations of CVS (which is by now 20-year-old software).
| + | |
| − | *Git is in general much simpler to use than CVS.
| + | |
| − | * With Git, GEOS-Chem developers will be able to:
| + | |
| − | *# Download the most current GEOS-Chem source code online. (This will obviate the need for having to download the <tt>*.tar.gz</tt> files.)
| + | |
| − | *# Develop and test their source code additions to GEOS-Chem in their own local repository, and
| + | |
| − | *# Submit their mature source code updates back to the [[GEOS-Chem programming staff|GEOS-Chem Support Team]] for inclusion in the standard mainline code
