| +Notes related to git compilation:
|
| +--------------------------------
|
| +
|
| +If you retrieved the libusbx repository from git and are using a gcc based
|
| +toolchain, be mindful that you should have the autotools installed (autoconf,
|
| +automake) and will need to run either ./autogen.sh or ./bootstrap.sh to produce
|
| +the configure file.
|
| +
|
| +The difference between autogen.sh and bootstrap.sh is that the former invokes
|
| +configure with a default set of options, and will therefore generate a Makefile,
|
| +whereas the latter does not invoke configure at all. If using autogen.sh, note
|
| +that you can also append options, that will be passed as is to configure.
|
| +
|
| +
|
| +Notes related to submitting new developments:
|
| +--------------------------------------------
|
| +
|
| +If you submit a new development to libusbx (eg: new backend), that is unlikely
|
| +to fit in a couple of small patches, we would kindly suggest that you create a
|
| +public account on github, if you don't have one already, and then fork a new
|
| +libusbx repository under this account from https://github.com/libusbx/libusbx.
|
| +
|
| +Then you can create a git branch for your work, that we will be able to better
|
| +reference and test.
|
| +
|
| +We also suggest that, if you are planning to bring in a large development, you
|
| +try to involve the libusbx community early by letting the mailing list know, as
|
| +you may find that other people might be eager to help you out.
|
| +See http://mailing-list.libusbx.org for details on how to join the mailing list.
