Full Maven Sources

As described in the next paragraphs, Maven full source code is dispatched in more than 100 Git repos: Maven core, but also plugins or components, skins, a few svn2git read-only mirrors...

To check out full Maven source code easily, we provide a simple way using additional Google repo tool and an additional Git repository for tool's manifest:

1. Install a git client if needed and the Google Repo tool (see manual install instructions).
2. Check out a new repo workspace and prepare master branch:

   repo init -u https://gitbox.apache.org/repos/asf/maven-sources.git
   repo sync
   repo start master --all

3. In your IDE, import the projects you're interested in from the repo workspace. Or directly build with command line the component you want.

Maven Sources Overview

Each component has its own Jira project or component for issue tracking: see the Issue Management report to get a summary.

Maven Site

The sources for this site are available in a distinct Git repository:

Maven Core

The Git repository for Maven contains a master branch which is the current development version. There is also a branch for maven-2.2.X or maven-3.0.x. In addition, the integration tests for the Maven core have their own repository.

The source repositories for the various plugins are in Git, listed in the documentation of the respective plugin, reachable via the plugin index.

There are also many shared components and subsystems with their own source repositories, mainly in Git, some in Subversion.
