Toolbox is a convenient option for development, but setting up the image with all dependencies is annoying at best, in particular later in the cycle when `dnf builddep` is likely insufficient. To address that, produce toolbox images for main and stable branches that are based on the regular CI image, and update them whenever the image version is updated. This guarantees that all build- and runtime dependencies are included. Unsurprisingly, the script that produces the image draws heavily from freedesktop's ci-templates. The most notable difference (other than being neither distro-agnostic nor generic) is that tag names are fixed (toolbox:main, toolbox:43 etc.) to make them easier to consume. Instead, whether an image needs rebuilding is based on a custom label that records the base image that was used. Part-of: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/merge_requests/2713>
GNOME Shell
GNOME Shell provides core user interface functions for the GNOME desktop, like switching to windows and launching applications. GNOME Shell takes advantage of the capabilities of modern graphics hardware and introduces innovative user interface concepts to provide a visually attractive and easy to use experience.
For more information about GNOME Shell, including instructions on how to build GNOME Shell from source and how to get involved with the project, see the project wiki.
Bugs should be reported to the GNOME bug tracking system. Please refer to the Schedule wiki page to see the supported versions.
Contributing
To contribute, open merge requests at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell.
Commit messages should follow the GNOME commit message
guidelines. If a merge request
fixes an existing issue, it is good practice to append the full issue URL
to each commit message. Try to always prefix commit subjects with a relevant
topic, such as panel: or status/network:, and it's always better to write
too much in the commit message body than too little.
Default branch
The default development branch is main. If you still have a local
checkout under the old name, use:
git checkout master
git branch -m master main
git fetch
git branch --unset-upstream
git branch -u origin/main
git symbolic-ref refs/remotes/origin/HEAD refs/remotes/origin/main
