'''IMPORTANT NOTES:'''
{{Note| In April 2015, the SCP team transitioned the source code repository from SVN-based to GitHub-based (Git).}}
 
On March 2008, the SCP team has changed the repository server from CVS based to SVN based.
 
Some terms have also changed with the new repository server:
*'''The stable branch''' (old CVS) is now called '''Trunk''' (new SVN).
*'''HEAD revision''' (new SVN) is latest version. Do not confuse it with '''the unstable branch''', also called '''HEAD branch''', in old CVS.

''Ported from karajorma's [http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php/topic,52845.0.html thread] on the [http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php HLP Forums].''
Documentation is available on [[Guide_to_FS_Open_and_git|this page]] under the section [[Guide_to_FS_Open_and_git#Getting_the_source:_Tortoise_Git|Getting the Source]]
 
Here's how you set things up:
 
*Go to the [http://tortoisesvn.tigris.org/ Tortoise SVN homepage] and download the latest version.
*Install it. You'll probably have to restart your PC afterwards.
*Make a new folder on your HD where you'd like to install the code. You'll need a fair bit of space for the code + the intermediate files when building it. Press right mouse and choose SVN Checkout from the list.
::''<font color=red>A image from the forum is needed here</font>''
*An new window will open up. Cut and paste this into the URL of repository box:<br>'''svn://svn.icculus.org/fs2open/trunk/fs2_open'''
*By default the HEAD revision will be selected. You probably don't want to change this. Your screen should now look like this:
::''<font color=red>Another image from the forum is needed here</font>''
*Press OK to begin downloading from the repository.
 
It's pretty easy. It shouldn't take you more than a minute or two to do once you've installed Tortoise.

Into your console, type the following :
Please see the [[Guide_to_FS_Open_on_Linux|Linux Development Guide]].
svn checkout svn://svn.icculus.org/fs2open/trunk/fs2_open
 
With a fresh Ubuntu 12.10 (latest) install, you will need to install the following packages.  Other distributions will vary on which packages need to be installed on top of the base install.
* build-essential
* subversion
* autoconf
* automake
* libsdl1.2-dev
* libogg-dev
* libvorbis-dev
* libtheora-dev
* lua5.1
* liblua5.1-0-dev
* libjpeg-dev
 
 
To build a debug build :
./autogen.sh --enable-debug
 
 
To build with custom CFLAGS :
./autogen.sh "CFLAGS={Your CFLAGS Here}"
Note that the quotes are required
 
 
Building with custom CFLAGS for machine specific binaries (such as -march=native -mtune=native), may be unstable and unsupported.  Use at your own risk.
 
Run 'make' with multiple jobs to compile faster
make -j 4
The number after '-j' should be the number of logical processors (physical + hyperthread)
 
 
 
After compiling completes, the executable is placed at $(FSO_BUILD_DIR)/code/fs2_open.M.m.vv (currently 3.6.19)
 
Copy this file to your fs2_open installation directory (your path will vary)
sudo cp ./code/fs2_open_3.6.19 /usr/share/games/freespace2
