Obtaining source code
GIMP source code lives in the gimp repository on the GNOME git
server
.
Notes: for more information on the git distributed version control tool, we
advise the very good online documentation

The GNOME git server hosts a couple of GIMP related repositories:

| babl | Pixel format conversion library |
| gegl | Generic Graphical Library |
| gimp | GIMP and the standard set of plug-ins |
| gimp-data-extras | GIMP Data files such as brushes, gradients, patterns and the like; outdated plug-ins are sometimes moved there as well |
