Installation Instructions
=========================
- *The hard way (manual*: Copy all the files in "bin" to your "bin".
- *The hard way (automatic)*: `make copy-install` will copy the bin files into /usr/local/bin (uninstall with `make usrlocal-uninstall`).
- *The symlinks way*: `make synlinks-install` will make symlinks of the bin files into /usr/local/bin (uninstall with `make usrlocal-uninstall`) (useful when doing development)
- *The MacPorts Way*: `sudo port install vcs_blackbox`
- *The Homebrew Way*: `brew install blackbox`
- *The RPM way*: Check out the repo and make an RPM via `make packages-rpm`; now you can distribute the RPM via local methods.
- *The Debian/Ubuntu way*: Check out the repo and install [fpm](https://github.com/jordansissel/fpm). Now you can make a DEB `make packages-deb` that can be distributed via local methods.
- *The hard way*: Copy all the files in "bin" to your "bin".
- *The manual way*: `make manual-install` to install. `make manual-uninstall` to uninstall.
- *The RPM way*: Check out the repo and make an RPM via `make packages-rpm`; now you can distribute the RPM via local methods. (Requires [fpm](https://github.com/jordansissel/fpm).)
- *The Debian/Ubuntu way*: Check out the repo and make a DEB via `make packages-deb`; now you can distribute the DEB via local methods. (Requires [fpm](https://github.com/jordansissel/fpm).)
- *The Antigen Way*: Add `antigen bundle StackExchange/blackbox` to your .zshrc
- *The Zgen Way*: Add `zgen load StackExchange/blackbox` to your .zshrc where you're loading your other plugins.
