This is an official mirror of V8 SVN repository from Google Code.

The intention behind creating it is to have a full history without a need to wait an hour for git-svn to retrieve it. Clone this repository in less than a minute, and you’re ready to hack!

How to start:


git clone git://github.com/v8/v8.git v8 && cd v8

Staying up-to-date:

On your development branch:


git pull --rebase origin master

For project members

Tracking SVN changes:

Project members use https:// prefix when accessing SVN. We have a branch called bleeding_edge. Setting up SVN tracking looks like this:


git update-ref refs/remotes/trunk origin/bleeding_edge
git svn init -T branches/bleeding_edge --username <username> https://v8.googlecode.com/svn
git config --replace svn-remote.svn.fetch branches/bleeding_edge:refs/remotes/origin/bleeding_edge
git svn fetch
git branch bleeding_edge origin/bleeding_edge

Committing

Update your branch using git-svn:


git svn rebase

Then commit using:


git cl dcommit
