Re: Updating local branches from Launchpad

 

Hello again,

Just want to make sure everyone is up to date with this pretty vital
information on how to work with the source code for those of us that are not
core programmers. Thanks to Ola for correcting my statement below.

The correct procedure is:

1) To get the code the first time, do "bzr branch lp:dhis2"

2) To get latest update (always do this before "mvn install"), do "bzr pull
lp:dhis2"
