AROS m68k-amiga

Make a really fast clone of all of AROS SVN, and be able to git svn dcommit

Fetching AROS.git

• git clone git://repo.or.cz/AROS.git
  • About 10-15 minutes on a slow link
• git svn init --username=yournamehere https://svn.aros.org/svn/aros/trunk/AROS
• git update-ref refs/remotes/git-svn origin/master
• git svn fetch
  • This should take under 60 seconds
• git checkout -b master-svn refs/remotes/git-svn

Fetching AROS-Contrib.git

• cd AROS
• Remove the '/contrib' line from .gitignore
• git submodule add git://repo.or.cz/AROS-Contrib.git contrib
  • About 4-5 minutes later...
• cd contrib
• git svn init --username=yournamehere https://svn.aros.org/svn/aros/trunk/contrib
• git update-ref refs/remotes/git-svn origin/master
• git svn fetch (under a minute or so)
• git checkout -b master-svn refs/remotes/git-svn

Working with GIT + SVN

There are many 'Using GIT with SVN' tutorials out there, but here's my workflow skeleton:

• git svn fetch
  • Updates to current SVN tip
• git checkout -b todays_project git-svn
  • Make a local branch to muck with
  • ( code code code )
• git gui
  • Make my local commits - no pushes at this point
• git svn fetch
  • update again, just in case
• git svn rebase
  • pile my changes on top of current tip
• ( Compile test )
• git svn dcommit (push my changes upstream)

Screenshots

Nov 2, 2010: Frankenrom KS 3.0

This is just the AROS Exec, with everything else from AmigaOS KickStart 3.0.

Doesn't boot, but does ask for a disk. The disk insertion animation is correct, too.

Nov 16, 2010: AROS (no KS) ROM

This is All AROS, no Kickstart.

Capable of running:

• EXILE100.ADF, md5sum f8d27184e8be07d1c9581de33d0b8b1a.
  • This is a trackdisk loading, not DOS boot sector disk. DOS boot sectors are not yet fully supported.
