Qubes Source Code Repositories
==============================
All the Qubes code is kept in GIT repositories. We divided the project into several components, each of which has its own separate repository, some of them:
- `core-admin.git` -- the core Qubes infrastructure responsible for VM management, VM templates, fs sharing, etc.
- `gui-daemon.git` -- GUI virtualization, Dom0 side.
- `gui-agent-linux.git` -- GUI virtualization, Linux VM side.
- `linux-template-builder.git` - scripts and other files used to create Qubes templates images.
You can browse the repositories [on line via GitWeb](http://git.qubes-os.org/gitweb/). The Qubes official repositories are in the `qubes-rX` directory, where X is release number (1, 2, etc).
To clone a repository:
{% highlight trac-wiki %}
git clone git://git.qubes-os.org/qubes-r2/<repo_name>.git <repo_name>
{% endhighlight %}
e.g.:
{% highlight trac-wiki %}
git clone git://git.qubes-os.org/qubes-r2/core-admin.git core-admin
{% endhighlight %}
Currently the preferred way of contributing to the project is by [sending a patch](/wiki/DevelFaq#Q:HowdoIsubmitapatch) via the project's mailing list (`git format-patch`).
