Which subrepository do the files under /home/boost/boost belong to? More specifically, I made a change to /home/boost/boost/date_time/time_resolution_traits.hpp and I am looking to push it upstream, but I cannot find who this file belongs to. Sincerely, -Axel

If /home/boost is the root of Boost then /home/boost/boost is auto-generated and not stored in any repository. You should never edit files there. Instead edit files in the corresponding library submodule in /home/boost/libs. Boost directory layout is described here: https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/wiki/ModBigPicture time_resolution_traits.hpp is from Boost.DateTime (/home/boost/libs/date_time).

home\boost\libs\date_time\include\boost\date_time The files under home\boost\boost are links to files under home\boost\libs. The files under home\boost\libs are always the ones to be changed.

However you won't be able to push your changes without proper access rights. Instead, you should create a fork of DateTime module (https://github.com/boostorg/date_time), modify the file in your fork and then create a pull request in order to merge your changes. Here is a tutorial (for Geometry module) showing how this can be done: https://github.com/boostorg/geometry/wiki/Contribution-Tutorial Regards, Adam
