| BOOTSTRAPPING BASICS | |
| ----------------------- | |
| You'll need: | |
| - Java 1.4 | |
| - Ant 1.6.5 or later | |
| First, give Ant a location into which the completed Maven distro should be installed: | |
| export M2_HOME=$HOME/apps/maven/apache-maven-2.1-SNAPSHOT | |
| Then, run Ant: | |
| ant | |
| Once the build completes, you should have a new Maven distro ready to roll in your $M2_HOME directory! | |
| Enjoy. |
