Leo:
I've been following the thread "[Maxima] build-index, cl-ppcre and
github" and I would like to experiment a little.
You mentioned in one of your posts that you built GCL from HEAD (which I
assumed to mean that you used 'git') and I wonder if you would provide a
brief tutorial on the steps necessary to use 'git' to retrieve GCL? I
have already done this successfully using CVS to retrieve gcl-2.6.8pre,
but I would like to know how to achieve it using 'git'.
I'm curious to see if I can successfully build maxima from HEAD also
(using 'git' and your repository), but I wanted start with GCL first to
see if I can do that properly.
Thanks in advance,
Paul
