The command to create a local repo, git init, creates a branch named master. [61] [111] Often it is used as the integration branch for merging changes into. [112] Since the default upstream remote is named origin, [113] the default remote branch is origin/master. Some tools such as GitHub and GitLab create a default branch named main instead.
Once connected, it will invoke the remote host's rsync and then the two programs will determine what parts of the local file need to be transferred so that the remote file matches the local one. One application of rsync is the synchronization of software repositories on mirror sites used by package management systems .
GitHub (/ ˈ ɡ ɪ t h ʌ b /) is a proprietary developer platform that allows developers to create, store, manage, and share their code. It uses Git to provide distributed version control and GitHub itself provides access control, bug tracking, software feature requests, task management, continuous integration, and wikis for every project. [8]
It layers an encrypted remote over a pre-existing, cloud or other remote. Crypt is commonly [11] used to encrypt / decrypt media, for streaming, on consumer storage services such as Google Drive. Rclone's configuration file contains the crypt password. The password can be lightly obfuscated, or the whole rclone.conf file can be encrypted. [39]
Flathub, a repository (or remote source in the Flatpak terminology) located at flathub.org, is the de facto standard for getting applications packaged with Flatpak. [12] Packages are contributed by both Flathub administrators and application developers, with a stated preference for submissions from the developers themselves. [ 13 ]
A software repository, or repo for short, is a storage location for software packages. Often a table of contents is also stored, along with metadata. A software repository is typically managed by source or version control, or repository managers. Package managers allow automatically installing and updating repositories, sometimes called "packages".
Cross-origin resource sharing (CORS) is a mechanism to safely bypass the same-origin policy, that is, it allows a web page to access restricted resources from a server on a domain different than the domain that served the web page. A web page may freely embed cross-origin images, stylesheets, scripts, iframes, and videos.
The source code base is usually available for check-out via Subversion or Git. Also available are discussion forums and the like. Since 2019, no new release of the open-source version has been made, and the svn repository has been protected by a password. The code is still available via a GitHub public mirror, but with a 12-month delay.
