Starcrack Git mirror

[cheez]

hey folks


just made git mirror of starcrack ai


here it is: http://gitorious.org/sc2ai/


why?


- i will keep starcrack branch updated with each new version released hoping guys who develop to change their minds and switch to more open way of developing


- it will be easier for people who want to help to track changes and get the idea of how AI is working and how is it improved hence it will be easier for people to suggest even better improvements


- it is git. you pull the repo and you have complete history of all changes, no internet connection required anymore. you can even start your branch locally and work on it while easily merging into it new releases


dont know what's git? git is like svn but way better for open development. don't even start to argue on this one - you will lose.


http://git-scm.com/


if you want it on windows - install msysgit and tortoisegit (google them)


P.S. you can fork a project, make your own branch and ping me for merge requests or you can just send me patches and i'll keep whole development organized.

P.P.S. this commit http://gitorious.org/sc2ai/sc2ai/commit/1323fc32923b4201940c3dfcee8be346e0c6e752 is actually v5

We've got our SVN set to public, it just refuses to let anybody on. We're working on it.

well git lets everybody in and more importantly - allows everybody to use all powers of SCM without asking for user/login/permissions

added goosie branch


so far 3 branches: master - original files, starcrack and goosie


http://gitorious.org/sc2ai/sc2ai/commits/goosie


switching between AIs now as easy as typing "git checkout starcrack" or "git checkout goosie"


for those who does not know correct layout:


in Mods/Liberty.SC2Mod you will find Base.SC2Data file, rename that file to Base.SC2Data.org so you could update starcraft in future and create a folder with same name instead


extract everything from Base.SC2Data into that folder so it contains GameData TextureReduction and TriggerLibs folders


now remove TriggerLibs folder and use this command to clone repository:

Code Select Expand

git clone git://gitorious.org/sc2ai/sc2ai.git TriggerLibs


you're done. by default you will only have master branch which is original files and you can always check and download anything else is in repository by typing

Code Select Expand

git branch -a
and e.g.

Code Select Expand

git checkout -t origin/starcrack
or

Code Select Expand

git checkout -t origin/goosie
or whatever else is there


and for updates - switch to branch you want to update and type

Code Select Expand

git pull


cheers, cheez

I was wondering if anyone could help me setup git, I have never used it before but I was hoping I could have the updates downloaded immediately.


Thanks for you time.

Hmm, I somewhat perfer SVN because of the SVN gui manager, Tortoise SVN.


With my experience with Mangos (a WoW server emulator), there was no GUI for git.


I guess it doesn't really matter though. Either way is nice to get new code out to people

nevermind

pushed v6.1.1: http://gitorious.org/sc2ai/sc2ai/commit/acc21d35369478d7ee5b4dc24459e52f1d167f7b


@minigold: installing git is easy


http://code.google.com/p/msysgit/ - basic required git stuff and
http://code.google.com/p/tortoisegit/ - git gui


you might want to read some tutorials how to use git but essentially it's same as SVN just much better
