Development repository for Julia's package manager,
shipped with Julia v1.0 and above.
#### Using the development version of Pkg.jl
If you want to develop this package do the following steps:
- Clone the repo anywhere.
- In line 2 of the `Project.toml` file (the line that begins with `uuid = ...`), modify the UUID, e.g. change the `44c` to `54c`.
- Change the current directory to the Pkg repo you just cloned and start julia with `julia --project`.
- `import Pkg` will now load the files in the cloned repo instead of the Pkg stdlib .
- To test your changes, simply do `include("test/runtests.jl")`.
If you need to build Julia from source with a git checkout of Pkg, then instead use `make DEPS_GIT=Pkg` when building Julia. The `Pkg` repo is in `stdlib/Pkg`, and created initially with a detached `HEAD`. If you're doing this from a pre-existing Julia repository, you may need to `make clean` beforehand.
