Nightly Builds

We make nightly builds to test Poky and to make the latest developments available. The results from these builds are available at http://pokylinux.org/autobuild/.

Development Code

Poky is maintained in git at http://git.pokylinux.org/ which has a browseable web interface.

To check out current development code using git:

git clone git://git.pokylinux.org/poky.git

Poky was formerly an svn project and the former subversion web interface is available at http://svn.o-hand.com/view/poky and code can still be checked out using subversion from http://svn.o-hand.com/repos/poky/trunk however all history was imported into git and svn is deprecated and may be removed in the future.

Wider platform support is under constant development and new platforms are added easily.
