No, you don't need to install Django over and over again since it's much easier to use the "develop" command for tracking svn changes. "python setup.py develop" tells setuptools to create a link in the site-packages directory to the current directory with the Django checkout. So the theoretical process for a fresh Django installation with setuptools would be: $ svn co http://code.djangoproject.com/svn/django/trunk/ django_src $ cd django_src $ python setup.py develop ... Creating /Library/Python/2.5/site-packages/Django.egg-link (link to .) Adding Django 0.97.pre-r6704 to easy-install.pth file Installed /Users/Jannis/Code/django_src ... Updating Django is easy: $ cd django_src $ svn update U django/contrib/admin/templatetags/admin_list.py U django/template/defaultfilters.py U tests/regressiontests/templates/filters.py Updated to revision 6708. $ sudo python setup.py develop ... Creating /Library/Python/2.5/site-packages/Django.egg-link (link to .) Removing Django 0.97.pre-r6704 from easy-install.pth file Adding Django 0.97.pre-r6706 to easy-install.pth file Installed /Users/Jannis/Code/django_src ... Direct installation of the current developer snapshot could be easy as, btw: easy_install Django==dev Best, Jannis 1: http://peak.telecommunity.com/DevCenter/setuptools#develop-deploy-the-project-source-in-development-mode > Best, Florian > > On 21 Nov., 16:39, Jannis Leidel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> Am 21.11.2007 um 13:54 schrieb Florian Apolloner: >> >>> Nice idea, but most (afaik) people are tracking the django-svn tree, >>> so we might need another way to check the version requirements?
