Be careful for changing files under ros/src/sensing/drivers/lidar/packages/velodyne. There is subtree. Original repository is here. If you change those files from this repository, you must use git subtree push. (Please never change and push code if you don't understand git subtree well).

See Autoware/docs. As of Aug 25 2015, we provide only Japanese documents. English documents will be added shortly.
