To build and use git-annex, you will need:

* `git`: <http://git-scm.com/>
* The Haskell Platform: <http://haskell.org/platform/>
* MissingH: <http://github.com/jgoerzen/missingh/wiki>
* pcre-light: <http://hackage.haskell.org/package/pcre-light>
* `uuid`: <http://www.ossp.org/pkg/lib/uuid/>
  (or uuidgen from util-linux)
* `xargs`: <http://savannah.gnu.org/projects/findutils/>
* `rsync`: <http://rsync.samba.org/>
* Then just [[download]] git-annex and run: `make; make install`

([Ikiwiki](http://ikiwiki.info) is needed to build the documentation,
but that will be skipped if it is not installed.)
