### Setup Git
Install [Git][], the version control system. If you're new to Git, peruse the documentation and go through some tutorials; I recommend familiarizing yourself with `checkout`, `branch`, `pull`, `push`, `merge`, and after a while, `rebase` and `cherry-pick`. Please commit early and often.

### Setup GitHub authentication
We are working to move all our repositories to GitHub. Unfortunately, this
transition is incomplete, but in progress. The DSC and OMI submodules are
hosted on GitHub, and while the former is a public repository, the latter is
private, thus requiring authentication.
You should already have your credential helper setup to "store," and so should
use a token with GitHub (instead of your plaintext password). Follow [their
instructions](https://help.github.com/articles/creating-an-access-token-for-command-line-use/).
### Download source code
Clone our [monad-linux][] source from Visual Studio Online, it's the superproject with a number of submodules.

Please read the documentation on [submodules][] if you're not familiar with them. Note that because VSO's "Complete Pull Request" button merges with `--no-ff`, an extra merge commit will always be created. This can be annoying when trying to commit updates to submodules. When a submodule PR is approved, you can "complete" it without a merge commit by merging it to develop manually and pushing the updated head.

Our convention is to create feature branches `dev/feature` off our integration branch `develop`. We then merge `develop` to `master` every few weeks when it is stable.

## Setup build environment
We use the [.NET Command Line Interface][dotnet-cli] (`dotnet-cli`) to build the managed components, and [CMake][] to build the native components. Install `dotnet-cli` by following their documentation (make sure to install the `dotnet-dev` package to get the latest version). Then install the following dependencies (assuming Ubuntu 14.04):

## Building
The command `dotnet restore` must be done at least once from the top directory to obtain all the necessary .NET packages; unfortunately, we also have to temporarily patch `System.Console.dll` until the API is officially updated, so run `./patch.sh`.

#### OMI
```sh
cd src/omi/Unix
./configure --dev --enable-debug
./configure --dev
make -j
```
#### Provider
The provider has its own `./build.sh` script which does the second step documented here.
The provider uses CMake to build, link, and register with OMI.
```sh
cd src/monad-omi-provider
make clean && make -j && make reg
cmake .
make -j
```
The provider also maintains its own native host library to initialize the CLR,
but there are plans to refactor .NET's packaged host as a shared library.
### DSC
DSC also uses OMI, so build it first, then build DSC against it. Unfortunately,
DSC cannot be configured to look for OMI elsewhere, so for now you need to
symlink it to the expected location.
```sh
ln -s ../omi/Unix/ omi-1.0.8
./configure --no-rpm --no-dpkg --local
make -j

## Running

### xUnit
Sadly, `dotnet-test` is not fully supported on Linux, so our xUnit tests do not currently run. We may be able to work around this, or get the `dotnet-cli` team to fix their xUnit runner. GitHub [issue](https://github.com/dotnet/cli/issues/407).
