Building from source on: Linux · Windows · macOS


The EDuke32 project self-hosts its source code in a Subversion repository: https://svn.eduke32.com/eduke32/

Git users may be interested in using Git-SVN for local development.

Various forks and mirrors have appeared on version control hosts such as GitHub, but without exception these mirrors have quickly fallen out of date.

Versioned

Subversion

It is recommended that you download the latest version from the EDuke32 Subversion (SVN) Repository.

Download and install a Subversion client, if applicable. Package managers usually have a subversion package. On Windows, here are some choices:

Run the following command:

svn checkout https://svn.eduke32.com/eduke32/

Git-SVN

If you are a developer who would rather use Git as a front-end, this is possible with the use of Git-SVN.

Here are Windows examples of Git clients:

To quickly jump into the action, run:

git svn clone -r HEAD https://svn.eduke32.com/eduke32/

It is also possible to clone the entire SVN version history, but be aware that this process takes a long time so it is only recommended if you need to delve into the history for the purpose of bisecting.

git svn clone https://svn.eduke32.com/eduke32/

See the following article for more information about how to use Git-SVN: Effectively Using Git With Subversion

Tarballs

Daily source tarballs are generated from the Subversion repository but they do not include metadata and Photoshop files for the purpose of saving space.

Old and older versions are also available but any use of them is highly discouraged.
