Subversion commit access requires an account on Morris. The server +behind busybox.net and uclibc.org. If you want to be able to commit things to +Subversion, first contribute some stuff to show you are serious, can handle +some responsibility, and that your patches don't generally need a lot of +cleanup. Then, very nicely ask one of us (Rob +Landley for BusyBox, or Erik +Andersen for uClibc) for an account.

+ +

If you're approved for an account, you'll need to send an email from your +preferred contact email address with the username you'd like to use when +committing changes to SVN, and attach a public ssh key to access your account +with.

+ +

If you don't currently have an ssh version 2 DSA key at least 1024 bits +long (the default), you can generate a key using the +command ssh-keygen -t dsa and hitting enter at the prompts. This +will create the files ~/.ssh/id_dsa and ~/.ssh/id_dsa.pub +You must then send the content of 'id_dsa.pub' to me so I can set up your +account. (The content of 'id_dsa' should of course be kept secret, anyone +who has that can access any account that's installed your public key in +its .ssh/authorized_keys file.)

+ +

Note that if you would prefer to keep your communications with us +private, you can encrypt your email using +Rob's public key or +Erik's public +key.

+ +

Once you are setup with an account, you will need to use your account to +checkout a copy of BusyBox from Subversion:

+ +

svn checkout svn+ssh://username@busybox.net/svn/trunk/busybox

+

or

+

svn checkout svn+ssh://username@uclibc.org/svn/trunk/uclibc

+ +

You must change username to your own username, or omit +it if it's the same as your local username.

+ +

You can then enter the newly checked out project directory, make changes, +check your changes, diff your changes, revert your changes, and and commit your +changes using commands such as:

+ +
+svn diff
+svn status
+svn revert
+EDITOR=vi svn commit
+svn log -v -r PREV:HEAD
+svn help
+
 + +

For additional detail on how to use Subversion, please visit the +the Subversion website. +You might also want to read online or buy a copy of the Subversion Book...

+ +

A morris account also gives you a personal web page +(http://busybox.net/~username comes from ~/public_html on morris), and of +course a shell prompt you can ssh into (as a regular user, root access is +reserved for Erik and Rob). But keep in mind an account on Morris is a +priviledge, not a requirement. Most contributors to busybox and uClibc +haven't got one, and accounts are handed out to make the project maintainers' +lives easier, not because "you deserve it".
