possible to fetch sources from git repository?
Hi, on the GCompris mailing list Yeves Combe announced that he has not only compiled GCompris on Mac OS X but also has used the gtk+ aqua port. It shoud be possible to provide some portfiles to make these results available to mapcports. Some of the sources are only available in git repositories so the question arise whether it is possible to fetch sources from git repositories? The man page only mentions cvs repositories. Gruss Olaf

I'm not sure what you mean by a git repository. How you you get sources for these files manually? Mark
Git is a version control system originally developed by linus torvalds for the linux kernel http://git.or.cz/ On Feb 12, 2007, at 6:49 PM, Mark Duling wrote:

I think you could add depends_build port:git-core in the Portfile and cook your own fetch {} phase that uses ${prefix}/ bin/git-* to retrieve the sources. I never tried but I think it should work. HTH Cédric Luthi
