The source code for Theodolite is versioned using the darcs revision control system. darcs is a simple yet powerful decentralized source control system that requires no special server. Precompiled binaries for various OSs can be downloaded from http://abridgegame.org/darcs/.
The URL for the source code is http://theodolite.sourceforge.net/darcs/theodolite
To get started with the Theodolite you can use the darcs get command:
darcs get http://theodolite.sourceforge.net/darcs/theodolite
Should you want to make a contribution, you can record a patch and send it by email:
darcs add [WHATEVER NEW FILES] darcs record darcs send
You can summarize all local changes by asking whats new:
darcs whatsnew -s
If you want to a synopsis of what new files you've created without actually invoking the add command you can use the --dry-run option combined with a quiet flag:
darcs add -r --dry-run -q *
This shows what darcs would add if you would have invoked the add command recursively on a whole directory.
Please refer to the manual from darcs for more information.
Also, because it is just a simple directory structure, you also could get the source tree using wget recursively, if you don't want to install darcs.
Theodolite uses the m2 http://maven.apache.org build lifecycle.
Once you have installed maven, you can build the sources by running:
mvn install
To run the unit tests, run
mvn test
