MPD git Repository 
Edit
MPD sources are managed in a git repository on http://git.musicpd.org/
The MPD master repository is: http://git.musicpd.org/cgit/master/mpd.git/
To get a copy of the current master branch, type (similar to "svn checkout"):
git clone git://git.musicpd.org/master/mpd.git
To update your working copy, cd to the mpd directory and type (similar to "svn update"):
git pull
Some notes on building mpd.
Git Packages Edit
These are packages made specifically for certain linux distributions.
Debian Edit
Debian nightly builds are currently offline, and we hope we will be able to provide new ones soon.
If you have installed MPD to /usr/local manually, you can still use the infrastructure from the vanilla Debian package:
/etc/init.d/mpd stop echo DAEMON=/usr/local/bin/mpd >>/etc/default/mpd /etc/init.d/mpd start
Arch Linux Edit
Arch users can get mpd from the extra repository. For most users, "pacman -S mpd" will suffice. It is reccommended to look at the wiki, though.
Experimental Gentoo Overlay Edit
The experimental Gentoo overlay was designed as a way to keep up-to-date. Most of it are live ebuilds, ebuilds that pull the latest master from whatever repository. It also includes ebuilds for clients that are not yet in portage.
git is required to pull the repository. The repository is available at git://github.com/musicpd/mpd-overlay.git. From time to time the git server will be unavailable, use the http mirror in that case.
You can view the activity from this repository.
Reporting Bugs Edit
If you run into any bugs with the overlay please report them using mantis
Portage Edit
MPD's portage overlay is also part of layman so all that's required to get the mpd-portage overlay is
emerge layman (source the layman config as per the information displayed from the ebuild) layman -a mpd
Now you should be able to do things such as:
emerge -pv mpd
(the version 9999 of this ebuild uses the current head revision of the repository)
Paludis Edit
The playman way:
playman -a mpd
The manual addition:
location = ${ROOT}/usr/local/portage/mpd
sync = git://github.com/musicpd/mpd-overlay.git
names_cache = /var/empty
master_repository = gentoo
format = ebuild
Uclinux Branch Repositories Edit
uclinux branch is a fork with special tweaks, and optimizations for embedded devices and slower computers.
