111 <h2><a name="hg">Use of Mercurial</a></h2>
112 <blockquote>
113 The OpenJDK sources are maintained with the revision control system
114 <a href="http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/Mercurial">Mercurial</a>.
115 If you are new to Mercurial, please see the
116 <a href="http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/BeginnersGuides">Beginner Guides</a>
117 or refer to the <a href=""http://hgbook.red-bean.com/">Mercurial Book</a>.
118 The first few chapters of the book provide an excellent overview of
119 Mercurial, what it is and how it works.
120 <br>
121 For using Mercurial with the OpenJDK refer to the
122 <a href=""http://openjdk.java.net/guide/repositories.html#installConfig">
123 Developer Guide: Installing and Configuring Mercurial</a>
124 section for more information.
125 The Forest Extension is not part of the Mercurial install,
126 and is optional,
127 but can be obtained with the following commands:
128 <blockquote>
129 <tt>
130 hg clone https://bitbucket.org/pmezard/hgforest-crew/overview/ <i>YourHgForest</i>
131 </tt>
132 </blockquote>
133 Once you have the file <tt>forest.py</tt>, you need to add these
134 lines to your <tt>${HOME}/.hgrc</tt> file:
135 <blockquote>
136 <tt>
137 [extensions]
138 <br>forest = <i>YourHgForest</i>/forest.py
139 </tt>
140 </blockquote>
141
142 <!-- ------------------------------------------------------ -->
143 <h3><a name="get_source">Getting the Source</a></h3>
144 <blockquote>
145 To get the entire set of OpenJDK Mercurial repositories
146 using the Forest Extension:
147 <blockquote>
148 <tt>
149 hg fclone http://openjdk.java.net/jdk7/jdk7 <i>YourOpenJDK</i>
150 </tt>
151 </blockquote>
152 To get the entire set of OpenJDK Mercurial repositories
153 without using the Forest Extension:
154 <blockquote>
155 <tt>
156 hg clone http://openjdk.java.net/jdk7/jdk7 <i>YourOpenJDK</i>
157 <br>cd <i>YourOpenJDK</i>
158 <br>sh ./get_source.sh
159 </tt>
160 </blockquote>
161 Once you have all the repositories, the
162 script <tt>make/scripts/hgforest.sh</tt>
163 can be used to repeat the same <tt>hg</tt>
164 command on every repository in the forest, e.g.
165 <blockquote>
166 <tt>
167 cd <i>YourOpenJDK</i>
168 <br>sh ./make/scripts/hgforest.sh pull -u
169 </tt>
170 </blockquote>
171 You may find this script <tt>make/scripts/hgforest.sh</tt> faster
172 than the <tt>hg</tt> forest commands provided by the
173 Forest Extension.

856 This is a temporary situation and these binary plugs will be
857 replaced with fully open source replacements as soon as possible.
858 So currently, in order to build a complete OpenJDK image,

873 A prompt will be issued for acceptance of these binary plug files.
874 During the OpenJDK build process these "binary plugs"
875 for the encumbered components will be copied into your
