Hi all, I'd like to move the install script to 2.7.

One additional question, what would people think about a "bootstrap" script being included that users are encouraged to run following the installation script? This script could set up ~/.hgrc and also create a bitbucket user from the CLI. What do you think? [+-][01] on optional bootstrap script? If we have support for item 1, I'll push it out sometime later this week. #2 would be on the few week timescale. (Lots of non-yt projects I'm focusing on for a while.) -Matt

+1 python2.7 -1 on bootstrap script. I don't like the idea of making or editing files on people's machines that are not explicitly yt. I'm also not sure about pushing people onto bitbucket. If I'm overruled, I would at least really like it if the script very explicitly states what it's going to do.

I have updated the install script, which I am testing now before committing. I did not include the starter script. At no point was this going to be part of install_script.sh, or a flag; it was going to be a secondary call that was encouraged. Note that the current install script does not touch anything outside the DEST_DIR variable. I was not suggesting that we violate this sandbox principle without consulting the user. The install script now checks out the repo yt-supplemental, which utilizes subrepos to pull in: * yt-doc repo * cookbook repo * The new pasteboard_template repo * The hgbb extension I have also recently added a pasteboard extension to the 'yt' command that programmatically generates posts, descriptions and raw files that can be accessed from either the command line or automatically uploaded, like at samskillman.bitbucket.org and matthewturk.bitbucket.org. The yt-supplemental repo will help make this pasteboard mechanism more accessible to people, but it will still require some bootstrapping on the part of the user. I'm documenting it presently, and it will be part of 2.1. (For which Sam is release manager.) Also, in response to Stephen's comment, I wrote up a developer documentation page a few weeks ago: http://yt.enzotools.org/doc/advanced/developing.html which could use some additional bootstrapping of hg, since I think it might be likely that people won't go to the hg tutorial. Any additional suggestions would be greatly appreciated, or you can all feel free to either directly edit/commit or issue fork/pull requests on the yt-doc repo.
