Hi all, last time I answered Quanah's testing call I simply downloaded the tgz from gitweb and then compiled as usual.
This is the link I can find on gitweb: http://www.openldap.org/devel/gitweb.cgi?p=openldap.git;a=snapshot;h=refs/he...
Hope this helps Marco

Can someone provide a current source code (2.4 Branch) build as a .tgz?
Or, can someone provide directions on how we can do it from OpenLDAP git repository? (This would be a more complex scenario.)
I'm not an git expert. But here's what I did following some git cookbooks:
$ mkdir /tmp/openldap-git $ cd /tmp/openldap-git $ git clone git://git.openldap.org/**openldap.githttp://git.openldap.org/openldap.git $ cd openldap
You now have a clone of the whole repository including all branches with the default branch set to 'master'. You have to switch the active branch to RE24.
Clean up everything left over from a previous build *before* switching a branch:
$ make distclean
List all available branches:
$ git branch -a michael@nb2:/tmp/openldap-git-**re24/openldap> git branch -a
- master
[..snipped..] remotes/origin/OPENLDAP_REL_**ENG_2_4 [..snipped..]
# Switch branch giving it a local name 're24':
$ git checkout -b re24 remotes/origin/OPENLDAP_REL_**ENG_2_4 Branch re24 set up to track remote branch OPENLDAP_REL_ENG_2_4 from origin. Switched to a new branch 're24'
Check which branch is active:
$ git branch master
- re24
Especially you now see the file CHANGES which contains the release history within the 2.4.x release series.
Ciao, Michael.
