Linux Installation

You will need python3, but most Linux distro's now have this.

The recommended option is to use:

pip3 install scm-helper

To use this you will need to have installed python3.

As an alternative you can also clone this repo. If cloning, be sure to clone the master branch. Once cloned run

python3 setup.py install

Annoyingly, you might also need the Python tkinter package, even though it's not used on Linux. Can't quite figure the dependencies to stop it! Also, setup.py cannot seem to install it. Installation is simple...

sudo apt-get install python3-tk

Running

Simply type scm in a shell.

Updates

To get the latest software use either:

• pip3 install scm-helper --upgrade

Install via Git

git clone https://github.com/ColinRobbins/scm-helper.git
cd scm-helper/
python3 setup.py install

Then to run

scm 

or

python3 scm.py

Updating

git pull
