which contains GHC itself and the "boot" libraries.
- 2. Check out the source code from darcs

+ 2. Check out the source code from git
+ -------------------------------------
- The recommended way to get a darcs checkout is to start off by
- downloading a snapshot with a name like:
+ First get the GHC git repository:
- ghc-HEAD-2009-09-09-ghc-corelibs-testsuite.tar.bz2
-
- from:
-
- http://darcs.haskell.org/
-
- and then untar it and bring it up-to-date with:
-
- $ cd ghc
- $ ./darcs-all get
-
-
- Alternatively you can use darcs to get the repos, but it will take a
- lot longer. First get the GHC darcs repository:
-
- $ darcs get http://darcs.haskell.org/ghc/
+ $ git clone http://darcs.haskell.org/ghc.git/
Then run the darcs-all script in that repository
to get the other repositories:
$ cd ghc
- $ chmod +x darcs-all
- $ ./darcs-all get
+ $ ./sync-all get
This checks out the "boot" packages.
