Cloning the Ceph Source Code Repository
=========================================
To clone a Ceph branch of the Ceph source code, go to `github Ceph
Repository`_, select a branch (``main`` by default), and click the **Download
ZIP** button.
.. _github Ceph Repository: https://github.com/ceph/ceph
To clone the entire git repository, :ref:`install <install-git>` and configure
``git``.
.. _install-git:
Install Git
===========
To install ``git`` on Debian/Ubuntu, run the following command:
.. prompt:: bash $
sudo apt-get install git
To install ``git`` on CentOS/RHEL, run the following command:
.. prompt:: bash $
sudo yum install git
You must have a ``github`` account. If you do not have a ``github``
account, go to `github.com`_ and register. Follow the directions for setting
up git at `Set Up Git`_.
.. _github.com: https://github.com
.. _Set Up Git: https://help.github.com/linux-set-up-git
Add SSH Keys (Optional)
=======================
To commit code to Ceph or to clone the respository by using SSH
(``git@github.com:ceph/ceph.git``), you must generate SSH keys for github.
.. tip:: If you want only to clone the repository, you can
use ``git clone --recursive https://github.com/ceph/ceph.git``
without generating SSH keys.
To generate SSH keys for ``github``, run the following command:
.. prompt:: bash $
ssh-keygen
To print the SSH key that you just generated and that you will add to your
``github`` account, use the ``cat`` command. (The following example assumes you
used the default file path.):
.. prompt:: bash $
cat .ssh/id_rsa.pub
Copy the public key.
Go to your ``github`` account, click "Account Settings" (represented by the
'tools' icon), and click "SSH Keys" on the left side navbar.
Click "Add SSH key" in the "SSH Keys" list, enter a name for the key, paste the
key you generated, and press the "Add key" button.
Clone the Source
================
To clone the Ceph source code repository, run the following command:
.. prompt:: bash $
git clone --recursive https://github.com/ceph/ceph.git
After ``git clone`` has run, you should have a full copy of the Ceph
repository.
.. tip:: Make sure you maintain the latest copies of the submodules included in
the repository. Running ``git status`` will tell you whether the submodules
are out of date. See :ref:`update-submodules` for more information.
.. prompt:: bash $
cd ceph
git status
.. _update-submodules:
Updating Submodules
-------------------
#. Determine whether your submodules are out of date:
.. prompt:: bash $
git status
A. If your submodules are up to date
If your submodules are up to date, the following console output will
appear:
::
On branch main
Your branch is up to date with 'origin/main'.
nothing to commit, working tree clean
If you see this console output, then your submodules are up to date.
You do not need this procedure.
B. If your submodules are not up to date
If your submodules are not up to date, you will see a message that
includes a list of "untracked files". The example here shows such a
list, which was generated from a real situation in which the
submodules were no longer current. Your list of files will not be the
same as this list of files, but this list is provided as an example.
If in your case any untracked files are listed, then you should
continue to the next step of this procedure.
::
On branch main
Your branch is up to date with 'origin/main'.
Untracked files:
(use "git add <file>..." to include in what will be committed)
src/pybind/cephfs/build/
src/pybind/cephfs/cephfs.c
src/pybind/cephfs/cephfs.egg-info/
src/pybind/rados/build/
src/pybind/rados/rados.c
src/pybind/rados/rados.egg-info/
src/pybind/rbd/build/
src/pybind/rbd/rbd.c
src/pybind/rbd/rbd.egg-info/
src/pybind/rgw/build/
src/pybind/rgw/rgw.c
src/pybind/rgw/rgw.egg-info/
nothing added to commit but untracked files present (use "git add" to track)
#. If your submodules are out of date, run the following commands:
.. prompt:: bash $
git submodule update --force --init --recursive
git clean -fdx
git submodule foreach git clean -fdx
If you still have problems with a submodule directory, use ``rm -rf
[directory name]`` to remove the directory. Then run ``git submodule update
--init --recursive`` again.
#. Run ``git status`` again:
.. prompt:: bash $
git status
Your submodules are up to date if you see the following message:
::
On branch main
Your branch is up to date with 'origin/main'.
nothing to commit, working tree clean
Choose a Branch
===============
Once you clone the source code and submodules, your Ceph repository
will be on the ``main`` branch by default, which is the unstable
development branch. You may choose other branches too.
- ``main``: The unstable development branch.
- ``stable-release-name``: The name of the stable, `Active Releases`_. e.g. ``Pacific``
- ``next``: The release candidate branch.
::
git checkout main
.. _Active Releases: https://docs.ceph.com/en/latest/releases/#active-releases
