Help for this site¶

This is a code-repository and project management site for software development carried out in the UK academic audio and music research field.

Run by SoundSoftware.ac.uk, it is intended to provide a useful facility for researchers who are making software in the course of their work, and for anyone who wishes to make use of such software in the future.

What facilities do we provide?¶

This server uses the Redmine project management system, with source code repositories managed using the Mercurial distributed version control system.

Documentation for Redmine is available in the Redmine Guide, and an introductory tutorial about Mercurial can be found at hginit.com, with a number of usage tips at hgtip.com.

How to contact us¶
