GHC Repositories

This page lists the active repositories relating to GHC. For instructions on actually getting a GHC source tree, see Building/GettingTheSources.

The HEAD

The Master List of repositories is in the file $(TOP)/packages. It is authoritative. Everything else in this sub-section may be out of date, although it gives the right general idea.

These repositories are the HEAD (main trunk) of GHC development:

http://darcs.haskell.org/ghc.git	The main GHC repository
http://darcs.haskell.org/testsuite.git	The test suite (requires python 2.4+)
http://darcs.haskell.org/nofib.git	The benchmark suite

Our repositories are either git repo, or darcs "hashed" format repos. You need Darcs version 2 or later (preferably 2.4 or later) to get the darcs repos. Use darcs's --lazy option when getting the repository remotely to dramatically speed up the transfer.

The following repositories are the "GHC boot" libraries, i.e. the set of libraries that are necessary to build GHC (i.e. they are used when building the stage 2 compiler). They populate the libraries/ directory of a GHC tree.
