Github is a great development-collaboration site built around Git. Amanda is mirrored to github at http://github.com/zmanda/amanda. On that page, you'll see the most recent revision to Amanda, and can explore the source.

Hacking

When you're ready to start hacking, here's what the process will look like:

  • "fork" the Amanda repository to create your own repository on github
  • do your hacking in that repository, potentially working up several different patches
  • send a "pull request" to the Amanda hackers, or email the [email protected] mailing list, giving the repository and branch that you would like to see merged into Amanda.

Github has a great guide to help you out. The github guides also provide a great resource for learning about git.
