The GnuPG development is tracked using the GIT disributed revision control system. A Public read-only GIT repository for GnuPG and related projects is available.

This service is provided to help you in hunting bugs and not to deliver stable snapshots; it may happen that it even does not compile, so please don't complain. GIT may put a high load on a server, so please don't poll for new pushes too often. Instead, we suggest you to subscribe to the commits mailing list .

There is a Web interface at http://git.gnupg.org/ which can be used to browse the GIT repository.

All repositories have been migrated to GIT from the old Subversion (SVN) code management tool. The standard way you checkout from an anonymous GIT is to clone the entire repository:

git clone git://git.gnupg.org/gnupg.git

You must run scripts/autogen.sh before doing the ./configure --enable-maintainer-mode, as this creates some needed files which are not stored in the repository. autogen.sh should check that you have all required tools installed. Please read the GIT manual pages before doing so. The master revision is the development branch; the stable 2.0 version (currently version 2.0.22) is known as STABLE-BRANCH-2-0; the stable 1.4 version of GnuPG (1.4.16) is known as STABLE-BRANCH-1-4.

Bug reports should go to the developers mailing list. See the page on mailing lists .
