    7070 * All source code in SVN should be in Unix text format as opposed to DOS text mode.
    7171 * When committing new features or significant changes to existing source code, the committer should take reasonable measures to insure that the source code continues to build and work on the most commonly supported platforms (currently Linux and Windows), either by testing on those platforms directly, running [wiki:Buildbot] tests, or by getting help from other developers working on those platforms. If new files or library dependencies are added, then the configure.in, Makefile.in, Makefile.vc and related documentations should be kept up to date.

     73== Relationship with other upstream projects imported in GDAL/OGR code base ==
     74
     75Some parts of the GDAL/OGR code base are regularly refreshed from other upstream projects.
     76So changes in those areas should go first into those upstream projects, otherwise they may
     77be lost during a later refresh. Note that those directories may contain a mix of GDAL
     78specific files and upstream files. This has to be checked on a case-by-case basis
     79(any file with CVS changelog at its beginning is a good candidate for belonging to the
     80upstream project)
     81
     82Currently the list of those areas is :
     83  * frmts/gtiff/libtiff : from libtiff CVS (http://www.remotesensing.org/libtiff/)
     84  * frmts/gtiff/libgeotiff : from libgeotiff SVN (http://trac.osgeo.org/geotiff/)
     85  * frmts/jpeg/libjpeg : from libjpeg project (http://sourceforge.net/projects/libjpeg/)
     86  * frmts/png/libpng : from libpng project (http://www.libpng.org/pub/png/libpng.html)
     87  * frmts/gif/giflib : from giflib project (http://sourceforge.net/projects/giflib)
     88  * frmts/zlib : from zlib project (http://www.zlib.net/)
     89  * ogr/ogrsf_frmts/mitab : from MITAB CVS (http://mitab.maptools.org/)
     90  * ogr/ogrsf_frmts/avc : from AVCE00 CVS (http://avce00.maptools.org/)
     91  * ogr/ogrsf_frmts/shape/[dbfopen.c, shpopen.c, shptree.c, shapefil.h] : from shapelib project (http://shapelib.maptools.org/)
     92  * data/ : some .csv files related to CRS come from libgeotiff
