# Obtaining Retro
|
|
|
|
## Stable Releases
|
|
|
|
I periodically make stable releases. This will typically happen
|
|
quarterly.
|
|
|
|
- http://forthworks.com/retro
|
|
- http://forth.works
|
|
|
|
## Snapshots
|
|
|
|
A lot of development happens between releases. I make snapshots
|
|
of my working source tree nightly (and often more often).
|
|
|
|
The latest snapshot can be downloaded from the following stable
|
|
URLs:
|
|
|
|
* http://forthworks.com/retro/r/latest.tar.gz
|
|
* gopher://forthworks.com/9/retro/r/latest.tar.gz
|
|
|
|
## Fossil Repository
|
|
|
|
I use a Fossil repository to manage development. To obtain a
|
|
copy of the repository install Fossil and:
|
|
|
|
fossil clone http://forthworks.com:8000 retro.fossil
|
|
mkdir retro
|
|
cd retro
|
|
fossil open /path/to/retro.fossil
|
|
|
|
See the Fossil documentation for details on using Fossil to
|
|
keep your local copy of the repository current.
|
|
|
|
This will let you stay current with my latest changes faster
|
|
than the snapshots, but you may occasionally encounter bigger
|
|
problems as some commits may be in a partially broken state.
|
|
|
|
If you have problems, check the version of Fossil you are
|
|
using. I am currently using Fossil 2.10, you may experience
|
|
issues checking out or cloning if using older versions.
|
|
|
|
## git Repository
|
|
|
|
There is now a read-only mirror of the fossil repository
|
|
provided via git. This is hosted on sr.ht.
|
|
|
|
git clone https://git.sr.ht/~crc_/retroforth
|
|
|
|
## Notes
|
|
|
|
I personally recommend using either a recent snapshot or a
|
|
build from one of the repositories. This will reflect the
|
|
latest system as I use it, and are normally reliable as I
|
|
run them daily for my production systems.
