 ===== How do I get it? =====
-You need a **svn** client to use the perpetual beta. Create a directory where you want to download the perpetual beta source code (for example: ''mkdir polymake-perpetual-beta'') and change into that directory. Now you can use the following command to checkout the latest version:
+The new git betas are published via github: [[https://github.com/polymake/polymake/tree/Snapshots]]
+You need a **git** client to use the perpetual beta. The changelog can be found in the github commit history. The [[reldocs>snapshot|reference documentation]] can be found [[reldocs>snapshot|here]].
+You can check it out to a new folder with:
 <code>
-svn checkout --username "guest" --password "" http://polymake.mathematik.tu-darmstadt.de/svn/polymake/snapshots/latest .
+git clone --branch Snapshots https://github.com/polymake/polymake.git polymake-beta
 </code>
-Observe that the dot at the end is part of the command.  **To apply later updates** change into the directory and just use the command: ''svn up''.
-Check the instructions on how to build polymake ([[howto:install|Linux]], [[howto:mac|Mac]]).

 ===== Something's wrong with my wrappers =====
-It might happen that you get some strange errors, when combining the perpetual beta version with other versions. You could try to delete the folder ''~/.polymake/wrappers''. If this doesn't work you can try and delete all your private polymake settings by removing the ''~/.polymake'' folder.
