Sakai CLE Workspace

A not-exactly-a-fork for Sakai CLE work and experiments.

This is intended to track CLE trunk-all in master and the release branches in places like 2.9.x. The point is to have a safe place to do wide-ranging tests or cleanup across all modules without needing to commit to all of the directories in the SVN repository or manage the many externals.

When I say trunk-all, I mean the CLE Subversion repository's /sakai/trunk as it stands today in January 2013, with all of the "core" svn:externals in full glory:

My Build Pattern

This repository supports a pattern I like to use for CLE development, where I keep the working copy in a src directory and unpack a Tomcat tarball as a sibling and rename or symlink the directory to tomcat. I usually use a couple of aliases or convenience scripts to set CATALINA_HOME in my enviroment so the sakai:deploy goal targets this "active" Tomcat installation. The .gitignore includes /tomcat and /tomcat-* for convenience.
