## Hacking
Working on the Leiningen codebase has a few unique challenges since
there's a bit of a chicken-and-egg bootstrap problem. To go from a
clean checkout to a working environment, the following steps are
necessary:
0. Place bin/lein on your $PATH somewhere.
1. Do a self-install of leiningen (from outside the checkout tree).
2. Place ~/.leiningen.jar in lib.
3. Invoke "lein compile" followed by "lein deps".
4. Remove .leiningen.jar from lib.
5. Invoke "lein uberjar", and place the jar in ~/.leiningen.jar for
future use.
