ICI&nbsp;source code development is managed using Git, with the reference repository hosted on [http://www.gitorious.org Gitorious.org] under project name [http://www.gitorious.org/projects/gcc-ici gcc-ici]. ICI development tracks closely the development of GCC, and caters to three complementary needs with distinct objectives:<br> 

*use in leading-edge research ("master" branch in Git), where a stable interface interface must be combined with latest advances in compiler technology 
*coordination with GCC&nbsp;plugin activities, supporting the development of new plugin-related concepts and features; 
*use in production environments, where a stable and proven version of GCC&nbsp;is a must.

This is why the ICI repository is organized in three main branches:

N.B.: Even if you are interested in just one of these branches, do not hesitate to clone the complete Git repository, as the difference in transfer size is not very big, and a complete copy of the repository gives you access to the complete history of development.
