Surfin’ Safari

WebKit is now in Subversion

Posted by Maciej Stachowiak on Tuesday, January 10th, 2006 at 1:29 am

The WebKit cvs repository has been successfully migrated to subversion. We’ve posted new instructions for getting the code. Give it a whirl, or try a nightly build.

Update: Mark Rowe, our nightly build wizard, has provided a tarball of a fresh anonsvn checkout. Downloading this may be faster than pulling straight from the server, and updates should be fairly quick after that.

    There was an option to not checkout the layout tests before. Will this be available again with svn?

    is possible to change te optimization flags to be more aggressive? if yes, how?

  3. maciej Says:

    We already set our optimization flags for maximum performance (so far as we can measure). You can change them by editing the Xcode project. If you find optimization settings that are measurably faster, we’d love to know.

    Trying to build WebKit gives me a linking error to ImageIO.h. Any ideas? Do I need to mess with setting the SDK, or something?

    What are the chances that the WebKit nightlies will be distributed as either a Universal Binary or separate binaries? I’m looking for a nightly for the mac/intel. I suppose the nightlies could be built as universal binaries, even though the normal safari won’t be Universal (but rather be arch independant). Or I guess you could simply build two copies of the binary.
