------------------

		||||
 | 
			
		||||
There are two primary ways of getting Google Mock's source code: you
 | 
			
		||||
can download a stable source release in your preferred archive format,
 | 
			
		||||
or directly check out the source from our Subversion (SVN) repository.
 | 
			
		||||
The SVN checkout requires a few extra steps and some extra software

		||||
can download a [stable source release](releases),
 | 
			
		||||
or directly check out the source from our Git repository.
 | 
			
		||||
The Git checkout requires a few extra steps and some extra software
 | 
			
		||||
packages on your system, but lets you track development and make

		||||
patches much more easily, so we highly encourage it.

### Source Package ###
 | 
			
		||||
### Git Checkout ###
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
Google Mock is released in versioned source packages which can be
 | 
			
		||||
downloaded from the download page [1].  Several different archive
 | 
			
		||||
formats are provided, but the only difference is the tools needed to
 | 
			
		||||
extract their contents, and the size of the resulting file.  Download
 | 
			
		||||
whichever you are most comfortable with.
 | 
			
		||||
To check out the master branch of Google Mock, run the following git command:
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
  [1] http://code.google.com/p/googlemock/downloads/list
 | 
			
		||||
    git clone https://github.com/google/googlemock.git
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
Once downloaded expand the archive using whichever tools you prefer
 | 
			
		||||
for that type.  This will always result in a new directory with the
 | 
			
		||||
name "gmock-X.Y.Z" which contains all of the source code.  Here are
 | 
			
		||||
some examples on Linux:
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
  tar -xvzf gmock-X.Y.Z.tar.gz
 | 
			
		||||
  tar -xvjf gmock-X.Y.Z.tar.bz2

  unzip gmock-X.Y.Z.zip
 |

### SVN Checkout ###
 | 
			
		||||
 |

To check out the main branch (also known as the "trunk") of Google
