Hi James, You can view a summary of change sets here: http://git.sv.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=coreutils.git gnulib is similar: http://git.sv.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=gnulib.git On that page, it lists some URLs, which you can "clone" to get a local copy (avoid the http:// one if you can, because that protocol is less efficient, and some older git clients malfunction with them): Most people want read access, so use this command: git clone git://git.sv.gnu.org/coreutils.git That creates a directory named "coreutils" in your working directory. Or, you can choose the destination dir name: git clone git://git.sv.gnu.org/coreutils.git SOME_OTHER_NAME Then, "cd coreutils" and run "git pull" to download the latest changes from the net, and merge them into your local copy. _______________________________________________ Bug-coreutils mailing list Bug-coreutils@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-coreutils
