Developers: Using git

If you want to check out the source code and develop on it, use this command:

git clone git://code.creativecommons.org/liblicense.git
git submodule init
git submodule update

That should give you a working copy you can commit to. In case you wonder: the latter two commandsfill the directories

• icons/jurisdictions
• license.rdf
• licenses

with content from external repositories similar to svn:externals for Subversion.
