−	It is recommended you use Subversion to download the source tree. If you are porting to another processor architecture to help us provide packages for that architecture, it is recommended you use one of the tagged 'stable' release SVN repositories for your build. If you are porting to a new operating system, it is recommended you get the latest development trunk. Instructions on how to get anonymous SVN releases is at the development website [http://oolite-linux.berlios.de oolite-linux.berlios.de]. You can also browse the SVN tree there to see what tags and branches exist. If you do not have the ability to run SVN, you can use the source tarballs. You will need both a -src and -data tarball. Unpack them in the same place.
		+	It is recommended you use git to download the source tree. First do
		+	git clone https://github.com/OoliteProject/oolite.git
		+	to get the main repository. Then, in the directory this creates, do
		+	git submodule update --init
		+	to pull in various other components such as dependencies, binary resources, and so on. The old SVN repository is no longer being updated.

	Once you have a source tree, you can build it by just typing 'make'. To run the newly-built code, then type 'openapp oolite'. If you want to build the Autopackage .package file, type 'makeinstaller'. This will leave a .package file in the build directory. You can then run this file to install the game.
