Source Repositories

As an open source organization, Blue Static is bound by the GNU GPL to publish the source code of its products so that users can make any changes they so desire. All projects' source code are stored in Git. Unlike Subversion or CVS, Git is a distributed source control system, meaning that anybody can take an exact copy of the whole repository and then publish their own changes, without needing access to a central repository. You technically do not “check out” a repository from Git, but rather you clone somebody else's repository and then you can either keep it locally or you can publish your own so others can take your changes.

Web Repository Browser

Click the above link to enter the web-based browser for all of the Git repositories. To clone a git repository, use git clone <URL> <destination>. This will download the entire repository (as well as its history), but it will be very fast. Use http://www.bluestatic.org/git/ as the base URL and then append the project name from the web listing. For instance, the URL for Bugdar's Git repository is http://www.bluestatic.org/git/Bugdar.git
