Forked And Git'd LOL!

Post by DevlshOne »

Forked. I hope you guys don't mind if I poke around and see what I can do to help. :)

No Windows support forum??

I'm not a JAVA guy but I'm going to learn it because I think this project is worth it. I did notice that the development of PS3MS seemed to be at a standstill and that bothers me because this application has incredible potential!!

That said, I'm going to dig deep into JAVA and do the best I can but I will probably need some help now and again. If you guys are willing to point me in the right direction occasionally, I'm willing to put some hard work into UMS.

Welcome here :)

Windows has no dedicated support normally we use the "general support" forum.

And I think both me and SubJunk felt that PMS had solved down so thats why SubJunk started UMS and I followed (or read here viewtopic.php?f=4&t=197)

Pull Requests are always welcome...
We reject: kings, presidents and voting.

Welcome to the forum and community :)
I didn't know any Java before starting work on PMS either so you're in good company ;) Looking forward to seeing your ideas come to life

Do you think all the references to "PMS" should be replaced with "UMS" in all the CONF files?

Yeah probably. I've been meaning to synchronise all the conf files for a while.

I can take care of that but I'm not perfectly clear on how to get them back to the GitHub and into the next release.

Well basically you fork our repository, make your changes, commit and push to your fork, then create a "pull request" via the GitHub website. Then we will see the request and decide whether to take it or ask questions about it, etc.

Ok. I've already forked the repository.. I'm using NetBeans and I think I've just about got the Build process working. In fact, I JUST got my first good build after downloading the 7zip libs. It bothers me that in NetBeans, the Project has "master" after it even though I know it's my local repo copy.

It's right to say master, it just means you aren't in a branch. It's like "trunk" in SVN.
