Difficulty implementing ComicFlow project

Question

Everyone knows there is a free source code application available for iPad named ComicFlow, but the source code is in the google source code - no download project link there.

Answer 1

You should install hg (or called mercurial) and type hg clone https://code.google.com/p/comicflow/. The source repository of ComicFlow has defined that it includes some subrepo such as the cocoahttpserver you mentioned. If you use hg to checkout the source code, they'll be taken care of automatically.

Answer 2

I'm the owner of the project. What happened at that time is that one of ComicFlow's subrepositories (CocoaHTTPServer) was relocated from Google Code to GitHub and it prevented things to work correctly. I actually fixed this problem a while back.

I also just did some significant changes to ComicFlow and it depends quite less on external repositories so the checkout process should be quite smoother.

1. Install latest Xcode from Apple
2. From Xcode > Preferences > Downloads > Components, install "Command Line Tools"
3. Install latest Mercurial.
4. Type this in Terminal hg clone https://code.google.com/p/comicflow
