Hello all, Recently I wrote a script (attached) to fetch tagged releases directly from a git repository on repo.or.cz. The script is pretty simple. It uses git-ls-remote to get the list of all remote tags and then uses that to find out the specific commit which is then used to construct a gitweb URL needed to fetch the source snapshot. Obviously, you'll need git for this, as well as autotools to make the configuration environment. Once you have everything you need, the process of downloading and installing any release is extremely simple: ./get-geda.sh -l (list all available releases) ./get-geda.sh 1.4.0 (get the 1.4.0 release) tar -zxf geda-gaf-1.4.0-20080127.tar.gz cd geda-gaf make config make install Two things to note: the script works only for 1.0 and later releases and currently uses the git repo at repo.or.cz. -- Ivan Stankovic, ivan.stankovic@xxxxxx "Protect your digital freedom and privacy, eliminate DRM, learn more at http://www.defectivebydesign.org/what_is_drm";
