Re: Download lilypond manual via GIT or other updateable method?

I keep an offline copy of the Lilypond manual; is there a way to
use GIT or similar to just update my copy without having to
download a 200+ MB tarball each time?

First, install git and the dependencies. On Debian/Ubuntu this command should install most of the required packages:

sudo apt-get build-dep lilypond

Then:

cd ~

git clone git://git.sv.gnu.org/lilypond.git

cd lilypond-git

./autogen.sh

make

make -j3 doc

When you want to update it:

cd ~/lilypond-git

git pull

make

make -j3 doc
