Working in Git
Install Git Tools
You use git to make changes to the Trafodion code, tests, documentation, and web site:
- Download the appropriate tool version; Linux or Windows: http://git-scm.com/downloads.
- Set up your git environment: GitHub Documentation
- Ensure that you register your ssh keys.

Download Trafodion Source Tree
You download the Trafodion source tree once the git tools have been installed.

You should have a basic understanding of how Trafodion is developed at this point. Where you go next depends on what areas you intend to contribute to:
- Create Build Environment: Trafodion requires a number of Linux packages and tools before you can build the code. This step is required if you intend to work on the Trafodion source or test code. It’s not strictly needed if you intend to work on the Trafodion documentation or web site; you can build these components without the complete Trafodion Build Environment. Refer to Modify Documentation or Modify Web Site.
Build Source: You can build the Trafodion source once the Build Environment has been created. Several options are available, including the capability to build the Trafodion binaries.
Note You MUST create the Build Environment before Building the Source.
Create Test Environment: You need to set up the Trafodion test environment in order to run the different Trafodion test libraries. You need to set up an Hadoop environment to test Trafodion. Trafodion includes scripts to create a small Hadoop environment, if needed.
Note You MUST create the Build Environment before creating the Test Environment.
This step is not necessary if you just want to build a Trafodion binary or if you working on the Documentation and/or Web Site.
Modify Documentation: You can modify the Trafodion documentation without creating the Trafodion Build Environment or Trafodion Test Environment. Typically, contributors working on the Trafodion code also modify the Trafodion Documentation when making changes.
Modify Web Site: You can modify the Trafodion web site without creating the Trafodion Build Environment or Trafodion Test Environment.
