[GitHelp]github.com/boostorg/sandbox comment confusing
At: https://github.com/boostorg/sandbox there's a comment by Beman from 10 yrs ago saying: Removed as obsolete - use Boost.Random instead which makes no sense to me. Also, are any of the sandbox files from svn going to be moved to this github sandbox? TIA. -regards, Larry

They're all there. There seems to be nothing in the 'master' branch, so you have to select a different one. Try 'trunk' and go to dir 'sandbox'. /Brian

Thanks Brian; however, I see nothing on the page: https://github.com/boostorg about "branch". There is a "fork" link; however, clicking on that changes the page; however, the new page still has no "trunk". BTW, I'm a github novice. -Larry

If you go to https://github.com/boostorg/sandbox there's a 'branch' dropdown on the left. There's also a 'branches' tab which takes you to a list of branches.

You want: https://github.com/boostorg/sandbox Click the "Branches" tab (says there're 20) The top branch is called trunk.

Join the club. :-) I actually cloned the repo to local and received an empty workspace. The download was 600Mb though, so I was sure there had to be *something* there. "git checkout trunk" did the trick. :-) /Brian
