Game of Trees (Got) is a version control system which prioritizes ease of use and simplicity over flexibility. Got is still under development; it is being developed exclusively on OpenBSD and its target audience are OpenBSD developers. Got is ISC-licensed and was designed with pledge(2) and unveil(2) in mind. Got uses Git repositories to store versioned data. At present, Got supports local version control operations only. Git can be used for any functionality which has not yet been implemented in Got. It will always remain possible to work with both Got and Git on the same repository. To compile the Got tool suite on OpenBSD, run: $ make obj $ make $ make install This will install the following commands: got, the command line interface tog, an ncurses-based interactive Git repository browser several helper programs from the libexec directory man pages (only installed if building sources from a Got release tarball) A Got release tarball will install files under /usr/local by default. A build started in Got's Git repository will install files under ~/bin. Tests will pass only after 'make install' because they rely on installed binaries in $PATH. Tests in the cmdline directory currently depend on git(1). $ doas pkg_add git $ make regress Man page files in the Got source tree can be viewed with 'man -l': $ man -l got/got.1 $ man -l got/git-repository.5 $ man -l got/got-worktree.5 $ man -l tog/tog.1 EXAMPLES in got.1 contains a quick-start guide for OpenBSD developers. Guidelines for reporting problems: All problem/bug reports should include a reproduction recipe in form of a shell script which starts out with an empty repository and runs a series of Got and/or Git commands to trigger the problem, be it a crash or some other undesirable behaviour. The regress/cmdline directory contains plenty of example scripts. An ideal reproduction recipe is written as an xfail ("expected failure") regression test. For a real-world example of an xfail test, see commits 4866d0842a2b34812818685aaa31d3e0a966412d and 2b496619daecc1f25b1bc0c53e01685030dc2c74 in Got's history. Please take this request very seriously; Ask for help with writing your regression test before asking for your problem to be fixed. Time invested in writing a regression test saves time wasted on back-and-forth discussion about how the problem can be reproduced. A regression test will need to be written in any case to verify a fix and prevent the problem from resurfacing. It is also possible to write test cases in C. Various examples of this exist in the regress/ directory. Most such tests are unit tests; it is unlikely that a problem found during regular usage will require a test to be written in C. Some areas of code, such as the tog UI, are not covered by automated tests. Please always try to find a way to trigger your problem via the command line interface before reporting a problem without a written test case included. If writing an automated test really turns out to be impossible, please explain in very clear terms how the problem can be reproduced.
