=head1 Exim Development Repository | ||
|
||
This is the Exim (Mail Transport Agent) Development Repository. Please | ||
read the following information if you wish to use or contribute to the | ||
Exim development process - this is to prevent your or our time being | ||
unnecessarily wasted. | ||
|
||
If you just want to use, build or get information on Exim then have a | ||
look at the pointers further down this file at L<General Exim Information>. | ||
|
||
=head2 General Development Information | ||
|
||
The general Exim development process and resources are documented in | ||
the wiki page at L<http://wiki.exim.org/EximDevelopment> - although | ||
the wiki is likely to be moved and rehashed in the near future. | ||
|
||
The sections below this duplicate much of the information form the | ||
wiki document. | ||
|
||
=head2 Development Repositories | ||
|
||
Exim development is kept within a git (L<http://git-scm.com/>) | ||
repository. The master repository is at L<git://git.exim.org/exim.git> | ||
with a web interface giving change and source visibility at | ||
L<http://git.exim.org/exim.git> | ||
|
||
There is a secondary repository on github at | ||
L<https://github.com/Exim/exim> managed by the Exim Organisation | ||
L<https://github.com/Exim> - however this may currently fall out of | ||
synchronisation with the main one. We intend to manage this better in | ||
the future, but it is currently early days for our github repo. | ||
|
||
=head2 Bug Tracking | ||
|
||
Currently this is all done using Bugzilla at L<http://bugs.exim.org/> | ||
- please do not use github issue tracking. | ||
|
||
=head2 Mailing List | ||
|
||
Development issues are normally discussed on the exim-dev Mailing list | ||
- see L<http://www.exim.org/maillist.html> | ||
|
||
=head2 Exim Release Process | ||
|
||
Some documentation on the realse process can be found at | ||
L<http://wiki.exim.org/EximRelease>. | ||
|
||
=head2 General Exim Information | ||
|
||
The best place to get general information is on the website at | ||
L<http://www.exim.org/>. | ||
|
||
You can find Download locations L<http://www.exim.org/mirrors.html>, | ||
Mailing list info L<http://www.exim.org/maillist.html> and Full | ||
Documentation L<http://www.exim.org/docs.html> on that website. | ||
|
||
If you are using a Linux or other freely available Unix like operating | ||
system it is very likely that your system will have Exim packaged for | ||
it already. In this case it is probably prudent to use these packages | ||
unless you have specialised requirements. | ||
|
||
In any case you can always ask on the | ||
Exim Users mailing list L<https://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-users> | ||
for further information. | ||
