Bazaar
From GnuCash
page for info on using bazaar to manage gnucash's source code.
There is a branch in bazaar that automatically follows the svn trunk, as well as some private copies at https://code.launchpad.net/gnucash
checking out:
bzr branch lp:gnucash
timings and example output for a checkout:
time bzr branch lp:gnucash You have not informed bzr of your launchpad login. If you are attempting a write operation and it fails, run "bzr launchpad-login YOUR_ID" and try again. Branched 11835 revision(s). real 7m0.624s user 1m53.615s sys 0m12.281s
fixme: looks like the bzr version chokes because it can't get the version number.
./autogen.sh ./configure --prefix=/opt/gnucash --enable-compile-warnings
... checking for ./src/swig-runtime.h... no configure: error: It looks like you are NOT building from Subversion but I cannot find swig-runtime.h. Check your PATH and make sure we can find svnversion in your PATH! Either that or contact gnucash-devel@gnucash.org because the tarball you downloaded is broken.
