Personally I'd follow "CG 3.2 Starting with Git", doing all stuff myself where needed. As said before. If you want a LilyDev then: For LINUX probably best to download LilyDev-1-debian.tar.xz from https://github.com/fedelibre/LilyDev/releases and follow the instructions in section "Container" from here: https://github.com/fedelibre/LilyDev/tree/master/mkosi > I'm not an experienced git user, and it's beginning to look as if a minor > change to three text files is going to end up with me being swamped in new > software :) Well, to submit a patch you'll need git. Once the setup works, you may want to do more than one patch. Doing development-work will always come along with some new software ;) At least the LilyDev-container will help a bit. Maybe Federico steps in, he knows his stuff best, ofcourse Cheers, Harm
