The best approach I've found is to use a subtree merge to bring in a branch of commits constructed from upstream snapshots. This is how we handle vxl and now DoubleCovnersion. See Modules/ThirdParty/VNL/src/README-ITK.txt Modules/ThirdParty/DoubleConversion/src/README-ITK.txt Modules/ThirdParty/DoubleConversion/src/UpdateDoubleConversionFromGoogle.sh for examples. -Brad K _______________________________________________ Powered by www.kitware.com Visit other Kitware open-source projects at http://www.kitware.com/opensource/opensource.html Kitware offers ITK Training Courses, for more information visit: http://kitware.com/products/protraining.php Please keep messages on-topic and check the ITK FAQ at: http://www.itk.org/Wiki/ITK_FAQ Follow this link to subscribe/unsubscribe: http://www.itk.org/mailman/listinfo/insight-developers
