Re: [Freetype-devel] Information about Code Base

Hello Anshuman,

>> Also, Which git repository hosting device Freetype uses - Github or
>> GitLab?

This question deserves a special answer: Right now, please use the
gitlab instance on 'freedesktop.org' from which the FreeType
repository should be cloned.

  https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/freetype

The 'github.com' mirror doesn't yet work as expected; we hope to have
this fixed in the next few weeks.  (The Savannah mirror works, too.)

FreeType isn't officially available from 'gitlab.com'.

This sounds great, thanks.  Please look up similar questions that have
been recently asked by other students interested in GSoC; I think my
replies then cover your questions, too.

What exactly do you mean?  Our home page

  https://www.freetype.org

should give you all information you need!  It's part of the GSoC job
to find where the source code is stored (hint: it's a git repository),
how to retrieve it, where the API documentation is located, etc., etc.

PS: You can reach the homepage from our GSoC page, too...
