|
||
|
|
tools appropriate for your operating system, including:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Python (2.7 or 3.x)
|
||
|
|
- Meson
|
||
|
|

In order to get Git GTK+ installed on your system, you need to have the
|
||
|
|
required versions of all the GTK+ dependencies; typically, this means a
|
||
|
|
recent version of GLib, Cairo, Pango, and ATK.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
**Note**: if you plan to push changes to back to the master repository and
|
||
|
|
have a GNOME account, you want to use the following instead:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```sh
|
||
|
|
$ git clone ssh://<username>@git.gnome.org/git/gtk+
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To compile the Git version of GTK+ on your system, you will need to
|
||
|
|
configure your build using Meson:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```sh
|
||
|
|
$ meson _builddir .
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For information about submitting patches and pushing changes to Git, see the
|
||
|
|
`README.md` and `README.commits` files. In particular, don't, under any
|
||
|
|
circumstances, push anything to Git before reading and understanding
|
||
|
|
`README.commmits`.
