Everybody is free to obtain, built, and modify Octave's source code, given in the main repository at https://www.octave.org/hg/octave. If you want to share your modifications, for example to fix a nasty bug #42424, you cannot just submit your changes to Octave's main repository. You have to generate a patch (or changeset) so Octave developers with permissions can include them into Octave's source code. | |||
