This plugin takes a small image and creates a texture out of it. The idea is to put several copies (patches) of the small image on the big canvas. The copies aren't complete: we cut the border so that the transition is invisible, and the texture seems natural.

If you're using a Debian-based system, install the build dependencies
sudo apt build-dep gimp-texturize
sudo apt install meson
Under a different OS, install
gimp(you probably already have that)libgimp3.0-dev(libraries for developping with GIMP)gettext(an internationalization tool).meson(the build tool we use)
To build and install the plugin:
./compile
Then (close and) reopen the GIMP. Texturize will be in the Filters->Map menu.
This plugin is based on the article "Graphcut Textures: Image and Video Synthesis Using Graph Cuts" by Vivek Kwatra, Arno Schödl, Irfan Essa, Greg Turk and Aaron Bobick, available from www.cc.gatech.edu/cpl/projects/graphcuttextures.
