How to test OfflineIMAP?
|
||||
------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
We don't have a testing tool, for now. As a IMAP client, we need an available
|
||||
IMAP server for that purpose. But it doesn't mean you can do anything.
|
||||
|
||||
Recent patches are merged in the next branch before beeing in the mainline. Once
|
||||
you have your own copy of the official repository, track this next branch::
|
||||
|
||||
git checkout -t origin/next
|
||||
|
||||
Update this branch in a regular basis with::
|
||||
|
||||
git checkout next
|
||||
git pull
|
||||
|
||||
Notice you're not supposed to install OfflineIMAP each time. You may simply
|
||||
run it like this::
|
||||
|
||||
./offlineimap.py
|
||||
|
||||
The choice is up to you. :-)
