From 99de2882e33d402cc9e95b9af0c9faa805c4ebc5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michael Dunn Date: Tue, 3 Sep 2013 17:10:23 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] Update README.md Make it explicit that the 'installing as a plugin' section is assuming that you've installed pyenv in the standard location and what to do if you've done something else. Clarify the language a little bit about checking out a specific release vs. pulling the current development version. --- README.md | 10 +++++++--- 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/README.md b/README.md index 34a970b..3357523 100644 --- a/README.md +++ b/README.md @@ -18,9 +18,13 @@ Installing pyenv-virtualenv as a pyenv plugin will give you access to the $ git clone git://github.com/yyuu/pyenv-virtualenv.git ~/.pyenv/plugins/pyenv-virtualenv This will install the latest development version of pyenv-virtualenv into -the `~/.pyenv/plugins/pyenv-virtualenv` directory.
