## The LibreWolf build instructions
|
|
|
|
1. Clone the git repository via https:
|
|
```
|
|
git clone --recursive https://gitlab.com/librewolf-community/browser/source.git
|
|
```
|
|
or Git:
|
|
```
|
|
git clone --recursive git@gitlab.com:librewolf-community/browser/source.git
|
|
```
|
|
cd into it, build the LibreWolf tarball, bootstrap the buld environment, and finally, perform the build:
|
|
```
|
|
cd source
|
|
make all
|
|
make bootstrap
|
|
make build
|
|
```
|
|
After that, you can either build a tarball from it, or run it:
|
|
```
|
|
make package
|
|
make run
|
|
```
|
|
#### How to make a patch
|
|
|
|
The easiest way to make patches is to go to the LibreWolf source folder:
|
|
```
|
|
cd librewolf-$(cat version)
|
|
git init
|
|
git add <path_to_file_you_changed>
|
|
git commit -am initial-commit
|
|
git diff > ../mypatch.patch
|
|
```
|
|
We have Gitter / Matrix rooms, and on the website we have links to the various issue trackers.
|
|
|
|
#### Building LibreWolf with a tarball instead of git:
|
|
|
|
First, let's **[download the latest tarball](https://gitlab.com/librewolf-community/browser/source/-/jobs/artifacts/main/raw/librewolf-96.0.3-1.source.tar.gz?job=Build)**. This tarball is the latest produced by the [CI](https://gitlab.com/librewolf-community/browser/source/-/jobs).
|
|
```
|
|
tar xf <tarball>
|
|
cd <folder>
|
|
make bootstrap build package run
|
|
```
