Getting started #30

Added some instructions to get started.

Please someone test on Windows. Mac should be okay, but that should be tested too.

zeffii commented 9 years ago

I can only test windows.

For the windows git instructions, this is the same for windows vista and upwards. After reading http://superuser.com/questions/343074/directory-junction-vs-directory-symbolic-link i realized that I use a directory junction /j which I thought was a symbolic link, but isn't -- the end result for local directories is pretty much the same. Maybe it would serve to include a statement like:

both /d and /j are good options, of the two /j requires no elevated user privileges so if /d fails, then use /j

pmadhikar commented 9 years ago

Okay, I made those changes.

pmadhikar commented 9 years ago

Oh, btw, could you please try these steps on Windows command prompt and git bash? I don't even know if anyone even uses the windows command prompt over git bash.

zeffii commented 9 years ago

I can confirm if git is installed correctly, that's how to do it on windows too. image The red asterix section is because that folder already had a folder called BioBlender.
