FLEUR git repository

The primary git-repository of FLEUR can be found on the iffgit-Server at FZ-Jülich.

You can clone the repository by using

git clone https://iffgit.fz-juelich.de/fleur/fleur.git

If you are a FLEUR developer you should use

git clone [email protected]:fleur/fleur.git

to be able to push changes back to the server. If you are not a developer yet but want to contribute, please contact Gregor or Daniel.

Please note, that the default branch you will see after cloning the repository is the 'develop' branch. In general you might find the following branches on the server.

  • develop: this is the default branch with the most up-to-date version of FLEUR. Small changes and developments should be committed directly into this branch. When doing so you should try to keep the code operational. It should still compile and the test should run.
  • release: this branch collects the official releases. You cannot commit to this branch and bugfixes should be handled as described below.
  • stable: this branch contains snapshots of the development branch considered "stable".

In addition several other branches can/will be present corresponding to features currently under development. If you start your own larger development it can be advisable to create your own branch. In this case you should try to follow changes in 'develop' by frequently merging 'develop' into your branch and you should create a merge request with 'develop' as soon as you are finished or reached some usefull state in your development.
