Source code

Version control with Git

OpenSC source code is managed with Git. The history of OpenSC source code versioning is from None -> CVS -> SVN -> Git. As the transitions have been done with automatic tools (cvs2svn, git-svn) some "corners" might be incorrect but the overall linear history of source code should be recognized and "git blame" should work as expected.

Master repository is hosted on Github: https://github.com/OpenSC/OpenSC/

Getting the source code

git clone git://github.com/OpenSC/OpenSC.git
cd OpenSC

Individual developers also have their own Github trees, Nightly Builds lists ones that you can get binaries from and Get Involved lists all known active developers.

Providing patches

First, please read Development Policy for tips on how to prepare your patch and the commit message. Be prepared to re-work your patch based on feedback. All patches go through review and you can also help doing code reviews.

• Please open pull requests against master branch
• Do NOT send pulls requests containing merge commits (at the moment at least, needs discussion)
