  40 To compile the source tree from a tarball, simply follow these steps :
  41
  42 - ./configure
  43 - make
  44 - make install
  45
  46 After running ./configure, you can also go in specific subdirectories and
  47 use make, make install.

  68 * For Developers
  69
  70 This source tree is based on the autotools suite from GNU to simplify
  71 portability. Here are some things you should have on your system in order to
  72 compile the git repository tree :
  73
  74
  75 - GNU autotools (automake >=1.7, autoconf >=2.50, autoheader >=2.50)
  76   (make sure your system wide "automake" points to a recent version!)
  77 - GNU Libtool
  78   (for more information, go to http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/)
  79
  80 If you get the tree from the repository, you will need to use the autogen.sh
  81 script. It calls all the GNU tools needed to prepare the tree configuration.
