Étoilé

There are three branches of Étoilé:

• Étoilé trunk is where development happens. This should work, but is likely to contain untested code. If you want to get involved with Étoilé development, run this branch.
• Étoilé stable contains code that has been tested in trunk for a bit and been reviewed by someone other than its author. Stable is missing a lot of stuff that is in trunk but has not received enough testing to be imported yet. Please test this branch if you are interested in improving Étoilé.
• The release branches are fixed points in the tree. These are the most tested, and only contain things we are fairly confident work as advertised. A release is a snapshot of the stable tree at a given time. If you are packaging Étoilé, please pick the latest release.

You can get the latest releases from the downloads page. The tarballs with a -svn suffix contain the .svn folders and can be used to seed a source tree. If you run svn up in the directory created by untarring one of these then it will update to the latest stable version.

Alternatively, you can get the code directly from subversion, using one of the following commands:

$ svn co svn://svn.gna.org/svn/etoile/trunk/Etoile Etoile
$ svn co svn://svn.gna.org/svn/etoile/stable Etoile
$ svn co svn://svn.gna.org/svn/etoile/tags/Etoile-0.4.0 Etoile

These will get the trunk, stable, and 0.4.0 release trees, respectively.
