- This codebase initially tries to keep abreast of XigmaNAS codebase consolidating commits to the same file
- The name change was done to avoid misrepresentation and a missive from the Trademark owner on 2019-09-23
- This codebase primarily came into being since the XigmaNAS code base could not be compiled by me (will update on successful compilation)
- It serves as a base for understanding code changes by organising whitespace and code block movement changes from the actual code changes in separate commits
- It also provides for code extensions by indicating which files need to be changed for what functionality class
- This codebase will be updated when time permits and comes with no claims - use it at your own risk.
- Only the
trunkbranch of the XigmaNAS repo (r6743) from June 2019 is available here
