The Widelands media repo, formerly hosted on Launchpad (https://code.launchpad.net/~widelands-media-dev/widelands-media/widelands-media) using bzr, has been migrated to a git repo hosted on Codeberg under https://codeberg.org/wl/widelands-media .

Now media developers can at last benefit too from the improvements git offers over bzr face-smile.png

The old repo has been marked as Obsolete/Abandoned and should not be pushed to any more.

The new repo is not mirrored to GitHub due to its size.

Many thanks to Codeberg for agreeing to host this very large (nearly 16 GB at the time of writing) repo!


In order to save a bit of space, files larger than 10 MB have been stored using Git LFS. See https://docs.codeberg.org/git/using-lfs/ for more info about LFS.

In short: After checking out the repo, these files are initially replaced by so-called pointer files to save disk space and download bandwidth. Run git lfs checkout to download and checkout the actual file contents.

When adding new large files, please check in large files into LFS by calling git lfs track FILENAME before committing (and be sure to always stage any changes to the .gitattributes file).

Before first use, you may need to install LFS. On Debian you can simply do sudo apt install git-lfs. You may also be interested in the manpage for git-lfs-completion for how to set up shell completion integration for LFS commands.
