Re: [CZT-Devel] Building from CZT snapshot

[Anthony H. <an...@an...>]

Dear Andrius

 

However your question about which version I was using did prompt a couple of questions in return. The answer is that I was using the master cloned from the Git repository. I was slightly surprised that when I did a fetch after a couple of days there seemed to be no changes. When I looked at the log, it seems the last change to master was on Jan 10 at 17-10-07. Is that correct, or am I doing something wrong with git? What are the nightly builds made from?

 

Interesting issues - I am not really sure. Which address did you use to clone the Git repository?

According to git config:

remote.origin.url=git://czt.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/czt/czt

remote.origin.fetch=+refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*

The url is what is given in setup.md 

 

I have a hunch that our migration to the new SourceForge platform may have influenced this.. if you see http://sourceforge.net/p/czt/code/ , the code listing on their website has some "unknown" bits. After new commits, they get refreshed to the correct version.. So I am a bit puzzled, but hope it gets resolved over time by SourceForge.

 

Nightly builds are being made from the default read-only CZT git repository at `git://git.code.sf.net/p/czt/code` <http://git.code.sf.net/p/czt/code%60> .

That doesn’t seem to be the same. Which should I be using?

 

So have you managed to pull the latest updates now or are you still on 2007 version? If there are problems, I can investigate.

As I say the version I have is Jan 30th (2013 that is)

 

May I ask a related question, purely about git? When we were using subversion, I referred to the version of czt that I had used in building cztinterface by its svn revision number. What is the git equivalent that allows someone to go and get the exact revision? Is it the checksum, or timestamp, or what?

In Git, the commits are referenced by their hash, e.g. 967829cb33b9fba62c11bb577ca496fee0aa0525 is the current head of the `master` branch (though we will push a lot of changes soon).

The hash and info of the last commit can be obtained by running `git log -1`.

 

You can search for the commit info by this reference, e.g. use `git show 967829cb33b9fba62c11bb577ca496fee0aa0525`

Thanks for that

 

All the best
