### Getting Qt Creator from Git
The official mirror of the Qt Creator repository is located at
https://code.qt.io/cgit/qt-creator/qt-creator.git/. Run
git clone https://code.qt.io/qt-creator/qt-creator.git
to clone the Qt Creator sources from there. This creates a checkout of the
Qt Creator sources in the `qt-creator/` directory of your current working
directory.
Qt Creator relies on some submodules, like
[litehtml](https://github.com/litehtml) for displaying documentation. Get these
submodules with
cd qt-creator # switch to the sources, if you just ran git clone
git submodule update --init --recursive
Note the `--recursive` in this command, which fetches also submodules within
submodules, and is necessary to get all the sources.
The git history contains some coding style cleanup commits, which you might
want to exclude for example when running `git blame`. Do this by running
git config blame.ignoreRevsFile .gitignore-blame
