GIT access

- As some shared but crucial files are not stored in the Nettle corner - of the GIT repository, the recommended way of GIT access is to check - out the entire LSH tree, as per the instructions at the LSH home page, run the - top-level ./.bootstrap script (which sets up a few important - symlinks and runs .bootstrap scripts in subdirectories), and then - descend into the nettle directory for a standard - ./configure && make there. + The public git repository for Nettle is located at git.lysator.liu.se. + After checkout, you need to run the .bootstrap script + before the standard ./configure && make.

- A separate repository for Nettle is planned. + Earlier, Nettle was version controlled as part of the LSH + repository. When converted to the current repository, the history of + all files has been maintained as far as practical. But since the + directory organization used to be a bit different, building old + versions of Nettle from the current git repository does not work out + of the box. To do that, you have to check out historic versions from + the LSH repository + instead.
