Check out the:

and

http://code.google.com/p/cog/wiki/AutomatedBuilds

i hope its easy to follow.

So, what you need to do if you wanna use own clone is to register at
gitorious and clone existing repository (like blessed one),
and then clone this remote clone to your own machine.

Then download a fresh image , which you gonna use for vmmaker, and run
LoadVMMaker.st in it, which will load
vmmaker and all dependencies to image.

And then you ready to work.

recently, we pushed changes needed for cmake to blessed repo as well.

That's easy. periodically i doing:

git svn rebase

and git imports & merges new svn commits to git repo..

if you issue 'git log' in your local clone directory, you can see commits like:

commit d45a620f6c0f9d1b7d3d3c5ebbc8f5098dccf40d

    Get my upload script to force me to write a readme.


    git-svn-id: http://www.squeakvm.org/svn/squeak/branches/Cog@2378
fa1542d4-bde8-0310-ad64-8ed1123d492a
-----

which is a log entry for commit imported from svn
