If you're the impatient type and want to setup and configure a local Git repository for Insoshi, here's what you need to do:

1. Install Git

2. Sign up for an account at GitHub (and provide an SSH public key)

3. Fork the official Insoshi repository at GitHub

4. Run the shell script (available as gist 18772 at GitHub and attached at the bottom of this page) in the directory where you want your repository:

  sh configure_insoshi_local.sh <GitHub account name>

What the script does is

1. Clones the official Insoshi repository
2. Adds remote connection information for your forked repository on GitHub to your local repository
3. Creates local tracking branches for the official 'master' and 'edge' branches
   
4. Creates a local development branch
5. Creates a branch on your forked repository and links it to your local development branch

You're now all set to pull in updates from our repository and push your updates up to your forked repository.
