What is this project ?

This project is NOT the official Slicer repository.

It is a fork of Slicer sources hosted at https://github.com/Slicer/Slicer

It is used as staging area to maintain topics specific to Slicer Custom Application that will eventually be contributed back to the official repository.

What is the branch naming convention ?

Each branch is named following the pattern kitware-custom-app-vY.Y.Z-YYYY-MM-DD-SHA{N}

where:

• kitware-custom-app is the name of the custom application. Two cases:
  • can be publicly disclosed: replace with the name of the application (e.g cell-locator)
  • can NOT be publicly disclosed: use the literal prefix kitware-custom-app or k12345-custom-app where 12345 is the internal Kitware ID)
• vX.Y.Z is the version of Slicer
• YYYY-MM-DD is the date of the last official commit associated with the branch.
• SHA{N} are the first N characters of the last official commit associated with the branch.

What is the relationship between Slicer/Slicer and Slicer/SlicerGitSVNArchive ?

Following the transition to using GitHub as the only repository for organizing Slicer sources, former Slicer GitHub repository has been renamed to Slicer/SlicerGitSVNArchive.

To ensure existing Kitware projects can still build, this repository was NOT renamed. That said, new branches related to the new Slicer/Slicer repository should still be published in this fork.
