Hello,
I would like to do some development but would prefer to anonymously. I am on a machine where traffic is not routed through Tor by default.
Initially there is this step:
git clone https://git.torproject.org/builders/tor-browser-bundle.git
That would associate my IP address with Tor development. Would it work to instead just do that via torsocks?
torsocks git clone https://git.torproject.org/builders/tor-browser-bundle.git
Are there other instances where there might be non-Tor connections? (Build scripts?)

Hi,
Delton Barnes:
yes.

Have a look at the Makefile for building the Tor Browser. If you are not building nightlies then torsocks should get used. See: https://gitweb.torproject.org/builders/tor-browser-bundle.git/blob/HEAD:/git... as well. Note: he master branch builds currently only nightlies and alphas. If you want to start with building a stable Tor Browser use the maint-4.0 branch.

I just want to note that you should set some anonymous mail and name in git configuration ( git config --global user.name , git config --global user.email ).
All commits are signed by your git username and e-mail.
I just say it, because I got hurt by this once (developed anonymously, but forgot my name and e-mail in git configuration).
