is there a step-by-step tutorial for compiling a svn-snapshot?
I was using this: http://puredata.info/docs/developer/BuildingPdExtended But recently I have been unable to build Pd this way because trunk is inconsistent ATM. I think the idea is to choose a version in /branches and build that, starting in the packages directory. It worked for me with Pd- extended 0.42.5 on linux at least. For the latest versions of externals build them separately from trunk/externals.
Yes, its true, its a bit of a mess. We haven't figured out out to bridge from git to svn very well yet, and both pure-data and pd-extended are now developed out of git.
If you want to build like the nightly builds, then use the 'rsync' method of getting the source.
It's weird, I remember the shift from cvs to svn took a few months of discussion on the list but I don't remember seeing anything about moving to git...

Hey Martin,
Miller moved to git a while ago, and with 0.43 started pushing his git to a public repository. Since then, it made sense to develop the Pd- extended fork of the Pd core also out of git so that we can manage the flow of patches between Pd and Pd-extended. So this only applies to the core, i.e what's in the 'pd' folder. Everything else remains in SVN.
I personally have moved all my work on the 'core' to git, I believe IOhannes has as well. If you wanted to work on the 'pd' core stuff in Pd-extended out of SVN, I suppose that would be possible, but I think it would be much easier for everyone if you also did your core work out of git. I am thinking that the Pd-extended release branches will remain entirely in SVN.
You are right, its not really been announced, I think my own Pd- extended work in git has only reached an announceable state in the past couple of days. So I'm curious what your thoughts on all this are, since you contribute quite a bit to the core.
