Buildbot has been through a number of version-control systems, but is currently a Git repository hosted at [http://github.com GitHub]:
 http://github.com/djmitche/buildbot
There are a few important branches here:
 * ''brian'' contains the patches accepted by Brian
 * ''master'' contains the latest patches accepted by Dustin, and tends to run a bit ahead of ''brian''.  This is a development branch, and serves as an incubator for new patches, but sometimes contains code that's not quite ready for release.
 * ''one-oh'' contains the latest work on BuildbotOneOh, the next generation of buildbot.

If you're not a git whiz, you can download a tarball of this repository by clicking the "Download" link on the github page.

Note that the Arch, Darcs, and CVS versions of the source are deprecated and no longer updated.
