Branching Model

We use the following branching model:

master is the stable branch. Building from here is the same as building from the latest tarball, or installing a binary package. No development is done on the master branch.
2.6.0 is the current development branch. All work is done here, and upon release it will be merged to master. This development branch is not stable, and should be treated accordingly. Make backups.

Installing

There are many binary packages available, but to install from source requires:

git
cmake
make
C++ compiler, currently gcc 7.1+ or clang 5.0+ for full C++17 support

Download the tarball, and expand it:

$ curl -O https://taskwarrior.org/download/task-2.6.0.tar.gz
$ tar xzf task-2.6.0.tar.gz
$ cd task-2.6.0

Or clone this repository:

$ git clone --recursive -b 2.6.0 https://github.com/GothenburgBitFactory/taskwarrior.git
$ cd taskwarrior

In case of errors with libshared - URL pointing to git.tasktools.org in either .git/config or .gitmodules:

$ sed -i 's/git.tasktools.org\/TM/github.com\/GothenburgBitFactory/' .git/config
$ git submodule update

$ sed -i 's/git.tasktools.org\/TM/github.com\/GothenburgBitFactory/' .gitmodules
$ git submodule init
$ git submodule update

Then build:

$ cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=release .
...
$ make
...
[$ make test]
...
$ sudo make install
