As a side note, it probably wouldn't hurt to set up a guide for |
| 17 |
running git on /usr/portage, including setting up these symlinks, |
| 18 |
running egencache after emerge --sync, etc. I imagine that this is a |
| 19 |
configuration that many developers will tend to use, and with the |
| 20 |
advent of git we may see more users who tend to contribute doing the |
| 21 |
same. |
