I have been trying to see how this gimp works but I am unable to load any images. All the ones I have say "Image resolution out of bounds using default resolution instead."

This is swiftly becoming the #1 FAQ for the development series. Short answer: Turn off optimisations. Long answer: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=85249

you most probably hit a compiler bug, see

Salut, Sven

http://www.gimp.org/devel_cvs.html tells me that I can get the latest code from cvs server via: cvs -z3 co gimp

and also it says: "There are also several branches in the GIMP cvs tree: the main or HEAD branch is GIMP 1.3 (the development version)".....

Then I tried cvs -z3 co -r gimp-1-3 gimp, of course I failed, it said: "no such tag gimp-1-3"

I got confused.

What will I get if I "cvs -z3 co gimp"? is it GIMP1.3? How can I get "main or HEAD branch"(GIMP 1.3, the development version)?

What is the structure map of the cvs? Thanks a lot!

Regards

Jay

Yes, that's correct. There's no "gimp-1-3" branch. As the page says, the "HEAD" branch is for GIMP 1.3 development. The HEAD branch is what you get if you just use "cvs -z3 co gimp".

Thanks, Christian.

Are there branchs for gimp-1.3.9, gimp-1.3.10? if there are not, how does gimp release? from head branch?

I really doubt there are branches for each individual release. There's not much point in that unless there are plans on continuing development on each release even after they are released, which I doubt. Branches are intended for different code paths and major redesigns. However, the individual releases are tagged in cvs, and each one of the releases has a tag.

If the distinction between branches and tags are unclear, I recommend a read in the documentation at http://www.cvshome.org/ or http://cvsbook.red-bean.com/ or any other CVS documentation resource on the net. These things aren't trivial when introduced to the first time, but thankfully there are lots of good documentation resources.

Just curious, why does gimp 1.2.3 work when compiled with the optimisations but devel gimp doesn't?

gimp 1.2.3 is a well-tested stable release, and 1.3.10 is a fast-changing, feature-lacking development version. It was a bug :)

Cheers,
Dave.
