madduck's git repository
Every one of the projects in this repository is available at the canonical
URL git://git.madduck.net/madduck/pub/<projectpath> — see
each project's metadata for the exact URL.
All patches and comments are welcome. Please squash your changes to logical
commits before using git-format-patch and git-send-email to
patches@ git. madduck. net .
If you'd read over the Git project's submission guidelines and adhered to them,
I'd be especially grateful.
SSH access, as well as push access can be individually
arranged .
If you use my repositories frequently, consider adding the following
snippet to ~/.gitconfig and using the third clone URL listed for each
project:
[url "git://git.madduck.net/madduck/"]
