CHECKOUT slicer source files


While it is not enforced, we strongly recommend you to AVOID the use of SPACES for both the source directory and the build directory. We mean it.


Git

Checking the code using Git and configuring the git svn bridge is the way to go. If you plan on contributing code, have a look at How to contribute a patch ?

  • Clone the github repository
 git clone git://github.com/Slicer/Slicer.git
  • Configure the git svn bridge to ensure the mapping with svn revision.
  cd Slicer
  git svn init http://svn.slicer.org/Slicer4/trunk
  git update-ref refs/remotes/git-svn refs/remotes/origin/master
  git checkout master
  git svn rebase
