Kismet git #

Kismet uses git for code management; code under development is in the master branch of the git repository, and the development of new features happens here.

While the development code may be unstable, generally it is quite usable, and may offer features and bug fixes which haven’t made it into a release version yet.

To get the latest code prior to release, check out the git master branch:

git clone https://www.kismetwireless.net/git/kismet.git

or to checkout from the Github mirror:

git clone https://github.com/kismetwireless/kismet.git

You can browse the development code via Github here

Nightly packages are also available, which are built for many distributions from the master branch of git.
