I am new to MuseScore development but have over 4-decades of experience developing and debugging software. I am trying to set up the best possible environment to work with nightly builds and nightly changes.
I have installed the latest Qt 5.2, MinGW GCC and GitHub environments. I have signed required agreements and have forked my own repository for MuseScore. Now I have a number of questions. Is the MuseScore repository on GitHub updated continually, daily, Nightly of other? Does my forked version update every time the MuseScore repository changes? When I clone a version of the my repository on my machine is it a one time clone or a link to the forked repository? Is there a way to automate the update of my cloned version to automatically receive any changes to the current MuseScore repository after each successful build? Process would need to query me if attempting to overwrite code I have modified? My goal initially will be to fix every bug or defect I get my hands on as quickly as possible. I would rather deal with last nights bugs then to spend time fixing bugs that were corrected the night before. Not yet highly experienced with GitHub, I am assuming like other SVN software it will notify me when my version is not in Sync with the MuseScore repository and give me the options to merge or not merge recent or open software changes. Lastly has anyone developed an install process for a MuseScore development environment that can: Can validate whether all dependencies for MuseScore development exist on a given OS and machine (processor)? Can automate and install a complete MuseScore development environment based on a given OS? -- View this message in context: http://dev-list.musescore.org/Help-Setting-Up-Best-Bug-Fix-Development-Environment-tp7578728.html Sent from the MuseScore Developer mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Start Your Social Network Today - Download eXo Platform Build your Enterprise Intranet with eXo Platform Software Java Based Open Source Intranet - Social, Extensible, Cloud Ready Get Started Now And Turn Your Intranet Into A Collaboration Platform http://p.sf.net/sfu/ExoPlatform _______________________________________________ Mscore-developer mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/mscore-developer
