Getting Started
Downloading
If it isn’t in your distro’s repositories (It is in Arch’s AUR! Both tagged release and git master.), you can still easily get rolling. Simply visit the project’s source code web interface and download a tarball under the Download column:
If you know the tag of the commit you want, you can use curl:
curl -sL -o bdisk.tar.xz https://git.square-r00t.net/BDisk/snapshot/BDisk-3.11.tar.xz
or wget:
wget -O bdisk.tar.xz https://git.square-r00t.net/BDisk/snapshot/BDisk-3.11.tar.xz
You can use https://git.square-r00t.net/BDisk/snapshot/BDisk-master.tar.xz for the URL if you want the latest working version. If you want a snapshot of a specific commit, you can use e.g. https://git.square-r00t.net/BDisk/snapshot/BDisk-5ac510762ce00eef213957825de0e6d07186e7f8.tar.xz and so on.
Alternatively, you can use git. Git most definitely should be in your distro’s repositories.

If you’re new to git and want to learn more, I highly recommend the book Pro Git. It is available for free download (or online reading). |
You can use https:
You can clone via https:
git clone https://git.square-r00t.net/BDisk
or native git protocol:
git clone git://git.square-r00t.net/bdisk.git BDisk
The git protocol is much faster, but at a cost of lessened security.
