| − | Biopython currently uses [[CVS]] for its version control system. Most of the Open Bio projects moved to [[SVN]] some time ago, and this was strongly considered for Biopython too. However, eventually followed BioRuby and [[GitMigration|moved to git instead]].

| − | === About git ===
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | The Biopython source code is kept under a version control system which allows multiple users from around the world to work on the same code base at the same time. We currently use [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Git_%28software%29 git] (developed by Linus Torvalds for Linux kernel development). Prior to September 2009, we used to use [[CVS]].

| − | | + | |
| − | An hourly updated CVS checkout of Biopython was available at http://biopython.open-bio.org/SRC/biopython and we intend to have this updated from git shortly.

| − | You can also [http://github.com/feeds/biopython/commits/biopython/master track changes] via [[wp:RSS (file format)|RSS]].

| − | === Viewing git sources ===
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Our current development git sources are available for viewing via [http://github.com/ GitHub]:

| − | [http://github.com/biopython/biopython Biopython GitHub Home]

| − | This is main repository. You can download these sources by clicking the Download link near the top of the page.

| − | === Anonymous git Access ===
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | You can also access (clone) a copy using the git command line tool. See [[GitUsage]].

| − | === Write git Access ===
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | In order to make changes to the official repository, you will need a github account with collaborator status.
| + | |
| − | Write CVS access is available for Biopython developers. This is normally given on a case by case basis, and the best place to discuss getting write access is on the [mailto:biopython-dev@biopython.org Biopython Development mailing list].
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Write access will of course be given to existing Biopython developers who had CVS commit rights.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Once you have access, see the instructions on [[GitUsage]]

| − | | + | |
| − | === Migration from CVS ===
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Most of the other [http://open-bio.org Open Bioinformatics Foundation] projects migrated from CVS to [[SVN|Subversion (SVN)]]. Biopython had been considering [[Subversion_migration|moving from CVS to SVN]] for a while, but instead [[GitMigration|moved to git]]. [http://bioruby.org BioRuby] also uses github.
