Documentation
|
|
-------------
|
|
|

Compilation
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
###Windows
|
|
Use the project files for Visual C++ 2008 or 2010 (2010 preferred) located in the platform dir.
|
|
|
|
###*nix
|
|
Run platform/unix/automagic, then run ./configure and make.
|
|
|
|
###OSX
|
|
Use the XCode project in platform/macosx.
|
|
|
|
For both Windows and OSX there are dependencies available [here][dependencies].

|
Repository information
|
|
----------------------
|
|
|
|
We use the 'default' branch for development, and therefore it should not be considered stable.
|
|
Also used is the 'minor' branch, which is used for features in the next minor version and it is
|
|
not our development target (which would be the next revision). (Version numbers formatted major.minor.revision.)
|
|
|
|
We tag all our releases (since we started using mercurial), and have binary downloads available for them.
|
|
|
|
Builds
|
|
------
|
|
|
|

|
|
and there's a ppa for ubuntu, [ppa:bartbes/love-stable][stableppa].
