Pre-requisites[]
You need Bazaar for revision control.
Login Setup[]
- Get a launchpad account at https://launchpad.net/+login
- When logged in, setup your SSH keys
- Click your name (top right corner)
- Click Change Details link (upper right)
- Click SSH Keys button (middle of page)
- Upload your public SSH key (How do I get a public key?)
- Register yourself
bzr launchpad-login [yourloginid]
Getting the code[]
You should prepare a directory to keep bzr work in
mkdir $repo # where $repos is some directory (ex: ~/repos) cd $repo bzr init-repo drizzle
You should first create a clean repo.
bzr branch lp:drizzle trunk
You can see the current history with:
cd $drizzle-repo # ex: ~/repos/drizzle cd trunk bzr log | more
You can now create a working copy of the clean repo
cd $drizzle-repo bzr branch trunk drizzle-fix-bugNNNNNN cd drizzle-fix-bugNNNNNN
NOTE: Use descriptive names such as drizzle-fix-bugNNNNNN (where NNNNNN is the bug # of course).
You should now Compile Drizzle.
Adding your contribution[]
With a working version, you can commence making changes in your new branch, committing code regularly to your local working copy.
cd $drizzle-repo/drizzle-fix-bugNNNNNN # Make Changes bzr commit -m "Merge comment"
Prior to publishing your completed work, you need update your local copy of the trunk, and then merge any changes into your working branch.
Merging recent changes[]
Update your local trunk.
cd $drizzle-repo cd trunk bzr pull
Updating your local branch.
cd $drizzle-repo cd drizzle-fix-bugNNNNNN bzr merge ../trunk bzr commit -m "Merged from trunk"
Verify differences carefully
bzr diff
Publish your branch[]
When all changes are merged and your changes are all consistent you can push your branch to LaunchPad
cd $drizzle-repos/$your-branch # where $your-branch is the branch you want to push (ex: drizzle-bugNNNN) bzr push lp:~[yourloginid]/drizzle/$your-branch
Propose branch[]
On your Launchpad Code page https : //code.launchpad.net/~[yourloginid]/drizzle/[branch-name] click the Propose for merging into another branch link to propose branch to the maintainers to be merged into the main trunk.
