=head1 Exim Development Repository
This is the Exim (Mail Transport Agent) Development Repository. Please
read the following information if you wish to use or contribute to the
Exim development process - this is to prevent your or our time being
unnecessarily wasted.
If you just want to use, build or get information on Exim then have a
look at the pointers further down this file at L.
=head2 General Development Information
The general Exim development process and resources are documented in
the wiki page at Lhttp://wiki.exim.org/EximDevelopment - although
the wiki is likely to be moved and rehashed in the near future.
The sections below this duplicate much of the information form the
wiki document.
=head2 Development Repositories
Exim development is kept within a git (Lhttps://git-scm.com/)
repository. The master repository is at Lgit://git.exim.org/exim.git
with a web interface giving change and source visibility at
Lhttps://git.exim.org/exim.git
There is a secondary repository on github at
Lhttps://github.com/Exim/exim managed by the Exim Organisation
- however this may currently fall out of synchronisation with the
main one.
=head2 Bug Tracking
Currently this is all done using Bugzilla at Lhttps://bugs.exim.org/
- please do not use github issue tracking.
=head2 Mailing List
Development issues are normally discussed on the exim-dev mailing list
=head2 Exim Release Process
Some documentation on the release process can be found at
Lhttp://wiki.exim.org/EximRelease.
=head2 General Exim Information
The best place to get general information is on the website at
Lhttps://www.exim.org/.
You can find Download locations Lhttps://www.exim.org/mirrors.html,
Mailing list info Lhttps://www.exim.org/maillist.html and Full
Documentation Lhttps://www.exim.org/docs.html on that website.
If you are using a Linux or other freely available Unix like operating
system it is very likely that your system will have Exim packaged for
it already. In this case it is probably prudent to use these packages
unless you have specialised requirements.
In any case you can always ask on the
Exim Users mailing list Lhttps://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-users
for further information.
