70This source tree is based on the autotools suite from GNU to simplify
71portability. Here are some things you should have on your system in order to
174cf7f8 72compile the git repository tree :

PMF
73
74
75- GNU autotools (automake >=1.7, autoconf >=2.50, autoheader >=2.50)
76 (make sure your system wide "automake" points to a recent version!)
77- GNU Libtool
78 (for more information, go to http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/)
79
80If you get the tree from the repository, you will need to use the autogen.sh
81script. It calls all the GNU tools needed to prepare the tree configuration.
