+Running catalyst from a Git checkout |
28 |
+------------------------------------ |
29 |
+ |
30 |
+If you're developing catalyst, you'll want to test your altered |
31 |
+version. An easy way to run it without reinstalling is to setup a |
32 |
+local configuration file and run: |
33 |
+ |
34 |
+ # ./catalyst -c catalyst.conf -f path/to/your.spec |
35 |
+ |
36 |
+The local configuration file can use all the defaults except for |
37 |
+`sharedir`, which you should change to point to your development |
38 |
+directory: |
39 |
+ |
40 |
+ sharedir="/home/wking/src/catalyst" |
