Hello Troye, This is terrific stuff. Great to see more people interested in GNU Savannah.
-1- As Karl wrote in the previous email, the GNU Savannah code based situation can be a bit confusing (I was sure confused at first, perhaps still am). The active website behind "http://savannah.gnu.org"; is found in this repository (under the "administration" project): git://git.sv.gnu.org/administration/savane.git *not* in the repositories called "savane" or "savane-cleanup" or similar - those are similar projects (forks?) that are not directly related to the active production website (yet, at least). More information can be found in past discussions in the Savannah-Hackers-Public mailing list: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/savannah-hackers-public/2013-10/msg00026.html http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/savannah-hackers-public/2014-08/msg00008.html http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/savannah-hackers-public/2014-08/msg00009.html If your interest is in writing code to be merged and used as quickly as possible, then the starting point should be the above git repository. -2- I've also tried to make Savannah server run locally, though I focused on using the existing PHP code with minimal changes to the Perl side. More technical details here: http://files.housegordon.org/gnu-sv/HACKING.html And I'll be happy to work together on that. -3- To make it easy to incorporate your additions, I would suggest to send your code changes as patches against the existing code (e.g. with "git format-patch") - this will make it easier for all other hackers on the mailing list to view and learn from your changes (and will also make emails much smaller). Thanks! - Assaf
