## building it yourself
This entails building git-annex from source, so you will first
need to get that working, see [[fromsource]] for some of the details.
In git-annex's source tree, run `make linuxstandalone`. This will build
git-annex from source, and then build the tarball bundle, into eg
`tmp/git-annex-standalone-amd64.tar.gz`
This build process is done on a Debian system, and it needs to use
`dpkg` to examine the host system.
## technical details
The way those tarballs are built is described in [joeyh's blog](http://joeyh.name/blog/entry/completely_linux_distribution-independent_packaging/).
