For detailed instructions on these steps, refer to the Post-Installation section after completing the Installation process.
Repository Syncing Options
If you are working on a forked repository behind several updates from the parent acap-v2 repository, you can get the latest updates or bug fixes using any of the options:
- "Sync" your forked repository's
devbranch to the parent repository'sdevbranch.⚠️Take care not to "discard" your commits.
- Create a Pull Request (PR) from the "parent" repository's (acap-v2) -
devbranch to your "forked" repository'sdevbranch, then merge/resolve conflicts. - Pick only the target updates/fixes, then commit them to your fork.
Project Maintainers occasionally update the parent repository acap-v2 for maintenance, bug fixes, and minor/optional updates. Sometimes, massive new feature updates.
Of the three (3) repository syncing options mentioned, doing the first or second options ensures up-to-date sync with the latest updates and bug fixes.
