# Adding the Dev Repository to Get New Packages from the GitHub Dev Branch
|
|
|
|
To try out new packages or the latest versions of existing packages as they are merged into the dev branch of the Photon OS GitHub site, add the `dev` repository to your repository list.
|
|
|
|
Perform th following steps:
|
|
|
|
1. On your Photon OS machine, run the following command as root to create a repository configuration file named `photon-dev.repo`, place it in `/etc/yum.repos.d`, and concatenate the repository information into the file:
|
|
```
|
|
cat > /etc/yum.repos.d/photon-dev.repo << "EOF"
|
|
[photon-dev]
|
|
name=VMware Photon Linux Dev(x86_64)
|
|
baseurl=https://dl.bintray.com/vmware/photon_dev_$basearch
|
|
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/VMWARE-RPM-GPG-KEY
|
|
gpgcheck=1
|
|
enabled=1
|
|
skip_if_unavailable=True
|
|
EOF
|
|
``` .
|
|
|
|
2. After establishing a new repository, run the following command to update the cached binary metadata for the repositories that `tdnf` polls:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
tdnf makecache
|
|
```
|
