====Subversion====
To clone EDuke32's Git repository, run:


It is recommended that you download the latest version from the EDuke32 Subversion (SVN) Repository.
git clone https://voidpoint.io/terminx/eduke32.git


Download and install a Subversion client, if applicable. Package managers usually have a <code>subversion</code> package. On Windows, here are some choices:
Windows users can use one of the following Git clients.
*[http://www.sliksvn.com/en/download SlikSVN] (high quality command-line native builds)
*[https://git-for-windows.github.io/ Git for Windows] is highly recommended.
*[http://tortoisesvn.net/downloads.html TortoiseSVN] (includes a handy GUI interface but uses Cygwin)
*[https://sourceforge.net/projects/win32svn/ Subversion for Windows by alagazam]
*[http://ankhsvn.open.collab.net/ AnkhSVN plugin for Visual Studio]
 
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:
*[https://git-for-windows.github.io/ Git for Windows] is recommended.
*[https://code.google.com/p/tortoisegit/ TortoiseGit] also exists.
*[https://code.google.com/p/tortoisegit/ TortoiseGit] also exists.
*[https://www.msys2.org/ MSYS2] has a port of Git, though the official Git for Windows package above will likely be preferable.


To quickly jump into the action, run:
macOS users can install Git through the [https://brew.sh Homebrew package manager].
 
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/

For Developers

The EDuke32 project self-hosts its source code in a Git repository: https://voidpoint.io/terminx/eduke32

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mirrors have appeared on version control hosts such as GitHub, but without exception these mirrors have quickly fallen out of date.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

To clone EDuke32's Git repository, run:

git clone https://voidpoint.io/terminx/eduke32.git

Windows users can use one of the following Git clients.

  • Git for Windows is highly recommended.
  • TortoiseGit also exists.
  • MSYS2 has a port of Git, though the official Git for Windows package above will likely be preferable.

macOS users can install Git through the Homebrew package manager.

Linux users can install Git through your distribution's package manager.

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.
