Gerris preservation mirror

An archival, source-only mirror of the Gerris Flow Solver ecosystem used by CoMPhy as historical context for Basilisk C. This is not an actively maintained fork and is not a modern supported installation route.

Contents

• src/gerris-stable/ — Gerris 1.3.2.
• src/gerris-fft-particles/ — a separate historical Gerris 1.3.2 fork with FFT/particle changes; its Darcs history differs from gerris-stable.
• src/gfsview-stable/ — the historical GfsView viewer.
• src/gts-stable/ — GNU Triangulated Surface Library 0.7.6.

The original Darcs metadata is retained for provenance. Historical snapshot archives and personal installation notes remain in a private preservation archive outside GitHub and are intentionally not replicated here. Redundant bundles and third-party release downloads are not part of this mirror.

Building

This is legacy Autotools software. Start with the original component README, then configure and build the component you need:

cd src/gerris-stable
./autogen.sh
./configure
make

Modern systems will need era-appropriate GLib/GTK, GTS and related dependencies; CoMPhy does not guarantee a current-platform build. Prefer Basilisk C for new research work.

Licensing and provenance

This repository redistributes preserved upstream source under its existing licences. It adds no claim of authorship. Read the COPYING file in each component: Gerris is GPLv3, GfsView is GPLv2, and GTS is LGPLv2. The gerris-fft-particles fork retains its own upstream notices. See PROVENANCE.md for the preservation scope.
