Which repo for meta-altera ?

Which repo for meta-altera ?

[Spriggs, Jim]

Hi Guys; confused noob here...

There appear to be (at least) two "official" repos for meta-altera:

        github.com/kraj/meta-altera

and

        git.rocketboards.org/meta-altera.git


So how should I choose between them?

Thanks!

Sorry about the company sig.: I can't switch it off.

fwiw I would usually start with the official index

http://layers.openembedded.org/layerindex/branch/master/layers/

This seems to point to github

Cheers, Alex

[Spriggs, Jim]

Hi Alex, Dalon, Kevin, Lists

hmmm, so I guess I'm still confused (sorry).

Alex recommends going via the "official" oe layers index, which currently links directly to github.com/kraj/meta-altera.

Kevin and Dalon hold out for github.com/altera-opensource/meta-altera, and Dalon specifically says "... and repos under any user name in github are forks".

So is there an official ;-) dichotomy between altera and oe?

Thanks for listening...

As far as I understand it Altera only maintains the one repo.

As you can read in the ReadMe.md Khem Raj and Yves Vandervennet are the official maintainers of github.com/altera-opensource/meta-altera


I really recommend to use github.com/altera-opensource/meta-altera instead of the fork from Khem Raj. But since you use the fork of one of the maintainers, it will probably be most of the time in synch with the altera-opensource repository.

Hi Kevin,

Rodger, got it this time – I had indeed missed the clue about the maintainers.

I should RTFM more often….

Many thanks for your help and patience ☺.

Re: Which repo for meta-altera ?

[Paul Eggleton]

(Adding Khem and Yves, the maintainers of the github repo, to CC)

In the interests of keeping the layer index accurate, can we get some 
clarification on which repo is the official BSP?

Thanks,
Paul

Please use github.com/kraj/meta-altera as mentioned in layerindex as
well. This is the community supported BSP

In this case, github.com/kraj/meta-altera is upstream moving forward and
https://github.com/altera-opensource/meta-altera will be more of staging area for Altera

documentation for this has been updates to clear the confusion see
http://rocketboards.org/foswiki/view/Documentation/MoveToGitHub

Hope that helps

If/when a vendor implements their own layer, I thought it was a
stipulation of using the layer index that the community layer is asked
to change its name to avoid confusion? As a convention "layer" would be
changed to "layer-community" for clarity.
