## Using cabal
include --bindir in all cabal install examples
2011-09-25 18:26:05 +00:00
As a haskell package, git-annex can be installed using cabal. For example:
reorder
2011-07-02 21:29:20 +00:00
cabal install git-annex --bindir=$HOME/bin
move manual cabal install into its own page, and simplify it
2012-04-13 15:15:27 +00:00
The above downloads the latest release. Alternatively, you can [[download]]
it yourself and [[manually_build_with_cabal|install/cabal]].

the no-s3 branch is not needed, and there is a new no-ifelse branch

* [hS3](http://hackage.haskell.org/package/hS3) (optional)
basic json support This includes a generic JSONStream library built on top of Text.JSON (somewhat hackishly). It would be possible to stream out a single json document describing all actions, but it's probably better for consumers if they can expect one json document per line, so I did it that way instead. Output from external programs used for transferring files is not currently hidden when outputting json, which probably makes it not very useful there. This may be dealt with if there is demand for json output for --get or --move to be parsable. The version, status, and find subcommands have hand-crafted output and don't do json. The whereis subcommand needs to be modified to produce useful json.

remove Utility.Conditional and use IfElse This drops the >>! and >>? with the nice low fixity. IfElse does have undocumented >>=>>! and >>=>>? operators, but I deem that too fishy. Anyway, using whenM and unlessM is easier; I sometimes mixed the operators up.

* [IfElse](http://hackage.haskell.org/package/IfElse)
finish bloom filters Add tuning, docs, etc. Not sure if status is the right place to remote size.. perhaps unused should report the size and also warn if it sees more keys than the bloom filter allows?

* [bloomfilter](http://hackage.haskell.org/package/bloomfilter)
autocorrection git-annex (but not git-annex-shell) supports the git help.autocorrect configuration setting, doing fuzzy matching using the restricted Damerau-Levenshtein edit distance, just as git does. This adds a build dependency on the haskell edit-distance library.

* Shell commands

The wget command will now be used in preference to curl, if available. Got tired of curl's various ugly progress bars.
2011-08-27 16:31:50 +00:00
* [wget](http://www.gnu.org/software/wget/) or [curl](http://http://curl.haxx.se/) (optional, but recommended)
update
2011-06-02 05:02:57 +00:00
* [sha1sum](ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/coreutils/) (optional, but recommended;
a sha1 command will also do)
* [gpg](http://gnupg.org/) (optional; needed for encryption)
* [ikiwiki](http://ikiwiki.info) (optional; used to build the docs)
ikiwiki is not really needed

nasty hack to build when hS3 is not available So, it would be nicer to just use Cabal and take advantage of its conditional compilation support. But, Cabal seems to lack good support for a package with an internal library that is used by multiple executables. It wants to build everything twice or more. That's too slow for me. Anyway, fairly soon, I expect to upgrade hS3 to a requirment, and I can just revert this.

Then just [[download]] git-annex and run: `make; make install`
