What is Github?
Github is the current version control repository used to maintain the Odamex source code. In layman's terms, it allows multiple people to be working on the same project at the same time while giving those same people the facilities to recognize collisions between two contributors code.
How do I access Odamex's Github respository?
Odamex's Github repository can be accessed using the following URL:
https://github.com/odamex/odamex
What is Odamex's Github access policy?
Read-only access to Odamex's Github repository is public, meaning that anyone can checkout the source for their own purposes, including modification and compilation. However, further repository access, such as Commit access, is restricted based on our Policy. If you wish to contribute to Odamex, please send a patch to one of the indicated MAINTAINERS. Those that contribute considerable time to improve the Odamex source may be granted full or partial access.
Generally, the project manager(s) will administrate this access with the guidance of the lead coder(s). Inactive accounts will tend to get frozen or disabled after a certain length of time.
