[TYPO3-english] How to build TYPO3 from Github (or gerrit)

[Urs Braem]

The source from https://github.com/TYPO3/TYPO3.CMS is not the full cms like in the tar on https://typo3.org/download/

I guess this has to be built, right? But how? Composer?

The reason for my question is that I would like to try out a gerrit patch https://review.typo3.org/#/c/53974/ but I have the same issue there

Thanks for any hint or link!

You can use composer. See doc for info —> https://composer.typo3.org/ <https://composer.typo3.org/>

I can create a base distribution with `composer create-project typo3/cms-base-distribution CmsBaseDistribution `.
That looks more familiar.
Do I still have to create the symlinks?

But my original question is how I get the mentioned "partial" stuff (from github or gerrit) built into such a base distribution.

Maybe I should ask the other way round: if I want to test a patch from gerrit, how?
