1 Getting the source code

GRUB is maintained using the Bazaar revision control system. To fetch the primary development branch:

     bzr get http://bzr.savannah.gnu.org/r/grub/trunk/grub

The GRUB developers maintain several other branches with work in progress. Of these, the most interesting is the experimental branch, which is a staging area for new code which we expect to eventually merge into trunk but which is not yet ready:

     bzr get http://bzr.savannah.gnu.org/r/grub/branches/experimental

Once you have used bzr get to fetch an initial copy of a branch, you can use bzr pull to keep it up to date. If you have modified your local version, you may need to resolve conflicts when pulling.
