<P>
The latest release of GNU Mach is version 1.3, 2002-05-28. However, it is
recommended that you use the version in CVS instead, the
<em>gnumach-1-branch</em> to be exact, as we are only a few steps before we'll
do another release from that branch.
<!--
It features:
<UL>
<LI>Bug fixes.</LI>
<LI>The kernel now directly supports "boot scripts" in the form of
multiboot module names with the same syntax as the Hurd's
<code>serverboot</code> program. That is, instead of telling GRUB
<code>module /boot/serverboot</code>, you can give GRUB a series of
commands like <code>module /hurd/ext2fs ${...}</code> where the syntax
after <code>module</code> is the same as in boot scripts for Hurd's
<code>serverboot</code>.</LI>
<LI>The kernel message device <code>kmsg</code> is now enabled by
default. <code>-ESCAPE_ME-disable-kmsg</code> turns it off.</LI>
<LI>Large disks (>= 10GB) are now correctly supported, the new
<code>get_status</code> call <code>DEV_GET_RECORDS</code> can return
the number of records of a device.</LI>
<LI>Lots of tweaks have been done to the virtual memory management to
make it perform better on today's machines.</LI>
<LI>The console supports ANSI escape sequences for colors and
attributes.</LI>
<LI>Support for the terminal speeds B57600 and B115200 has been
added.</LI>
</UL>
<P>

<P>
The GNU Mach source code is managed in the version control system <a
href="/software/cvs/cvs.html">CVS</A>. You can check out the CVS repository
with the following instruction set.
<P>
Source tree:
<BR>
<SAMP>cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.savannah.gnu.org:/sources/hurd co gnumach</SAMP>
<P>
Use to following to get the <samp>GNU Mach 1 branch</samp>:
<BR>
<SAMP>cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.savannah.gnu.org:/sources/hurd co -r gnumach-1-branch gnumach</SAMP>
<P>Updates from within the module's directory do not need the -d parameter.
<p>For the full details, read the <a
href="https://savannah.gnu.org/cvs/?group=hurd">Savannah</a> page.
<H3><A HREF="#TOCcvsweb" NAME="cvsweb">Browsing the code</A></H3>
<P>
You can also browse the <A
HREF="http://cvs.savannah.gnu.org/viewcvs/hurd/gnumach/">CVS
repository of GNU Mach</A> with your web browser. The web pages are
generated dynamically at the time you request them and are always up
to date.
<P>
There is also a <A
HREF="http://www.htu.tugraz.at/~past/hurd/global/">cross referenced
database</A> of the Hurd, GNU Mach, MIG, and the GNU C library sources
online for you to browse. It provides better searching and browsing
facilities than the online CVS repository, but it is not always up to
date and does not contain history information.
