Re: Multiple distfiles vs "git submodule"

Sounds good to me. Like I said, I don't mind fetching the single tarball that's hosted on blender's own website, as long as the veteran MacPorts devs such as you don't have any objections. Doing it that way also allows me to simplify my portfile by a couple dozen lines. -- Jason Liu On Fri, Jul

Re: Multiple distfiles vs "git submodule"

If by "official release tarball" you are referring to what is in the blender/blender GitHub repo, that tarball is incomplete. It doesn't contain the other 3 parts. If instead you are referring to the tarball that is provided at https://www.blender.org/download/

You mean on their git server? Yes, the vast majority aren't included in the official release tarballs. Repos like "blender-buildbot", "blender-org", "blender-dev-fund", etc. are for their buildbot CI server, website, etc. Stuff that I'm sure is important to the Blender Foundation, but has nothing t

Re: Multiple distfiles vs "git submodule"

Blender runs their own git server to store their codebase. They provide read-only mirrors to GitHub, which is where I get the distfiles from: - blender/blender - blender/blender-translations

Multiple distfiles vs "git submodule"

I have a question regarding how best to fetch the source code for my Blender port. Blender's source code is split up into four pieces, which are of course structured as submodules in GitHub. I know that I could use the 'git submodule update --init' technique to obtain the submodules during the fetc
