Breezy install instructions

***************************

Dependencies

------------

Breezy requires Python 3.5 or newer.

It also requires the `configobj` and `patiencediff` Python modules to be

installed.

These can be installed either from your operating system's package

manager, using pip or by downloading them from:

  configobj: https://github.com/DiffSK/configobj

  patiencediff: https://github.com/breezy-team/patiencediff

Optional dependencies

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

If you wish to access branches over sftp, you will need paramiko and

pycrypto:

  http://www.lag.net/paramiko/

To PGP sign commits and verify PGP signatures on commits, install

python-gpgme.

For Git support, install Dulwich:

  https://www.dulwich.io/

For fastimport support, install python-fastimport:

  https://github.com/jelmer/python-fastimport

brz can optionally use compiled versions of some parts of the code

for increased speed. When installing brz you need the ability to

build C extensions. Some GNU/Linux distributions package the necessary

headers separately from the main Python package. This package is

probably named something like python-dev or python-devel. FreeBSD,

Windows, source-based GNU/Linux distributions, and possibly other operating

systems, have the required files installed by default.

If you are installing brz from a brz branch rather than a release tarball,

then you should also have the Cython package installed. This is not necessary

for release tarballs as they already contain the C files that Cython is needed

to create.

Installation

------------

When upgrading using setup.py, it is recommended that you first delete the

bzrlib directory from the install target.

To install brz as a user, run

  python setup.py install --home ~ 

To install system-wide, run (as root)

  python setup.py install
