FreeCol - Subversion Repository Layout

Subversion Repository Layout

At the top-most level of the repository we have the following directories:


freecol	This part of the repository contains the application with source code and data files, audio and graphics currently in use.
graphics	The source files for the graphics are contained within this directory. We also keep certain rendered images as well - especially if the images are currently not in use.
audio	In the future, we might put some audio source files here. Currently it is almost empty.
conceptual	This directory contains images used for inspiration when creating graphics. These are images not intended for the game.

Each of these directories have their own trunk, tags and branches directories. The trunk contains the main version, while the tags depicts how a version appears at a release and branches contains alternate directions of development.

The tags and branches directories are only used for the freecol part of the repository.

Development branches

We are developing two versions of FreeCol at the same time: the main version and a 0.7.x-branch. The former will be released as FreeCol 0.8.0 and will be buggy for a long time, while the latter will be used for creating 0.7.x releases. The main version is located in freecol/trunk while the 0.7.x-branch can be found in freecol/branches/0.7.x/trunk.

BRANCHES

We might continue using branches for bugfix releases as indicated in the image above. The main version would in that case continue to reside in the freecol/trunk directory.
