I prefixed the Bootstrapping section with
(As mentioned in the next section you can use a location other than ~~/.emacs.d~. Never-the-less most of the subsequent examples just talk about ~~/.emacs.d~ and if you use something else, then obviously have to substitute that. The same for the string ~lib~ and the variables ~user-init-file~ and ~user-emacs-directory~, which also might not be appropriate depending on your choices.)
We'll see if that is enough.

.Questions:
At https://github.com/emacscollective/borg/blame/master/borg.org#L195, a
Makefile
is created that uses$(DRONES_DIR)
, however, at https://github.com/emacscollective/borg/blame/master/borg.org#L208, https://github.com/emacscollective/borg/blame/master/borg.org#L218 and subsequently,lib
is used.hard-coded
reference tolib
be updated to refer to the$DRONES_DIR
or a note added to mention: "In the following examples, replacelib
with the location you'd like to have the drones installed."Makefile
to be used? It's a bit confusing to create theMakefile
here and to not use it - but toresist the temptation
to runmake bootstrap-borg
.At https://github.com/emacscollective/borg/blame/master/borg.org#L218,
user-emacs-directory
is used. Usingemacs -Q --load <path-to-init-file>
raises and error:user-emacs-directory
is set to~/.emacs.d/
. Using the suggestion from https://github.com/emacscollective/borg/issues/46:Adding these two lines ahead of the suggested
init.el
eliminates the above error.Update: Q3
Appears
--batch
operation with--eval
has a different evaluation order. Adding debugmessage
expressions to.init.el
directly shows thatload-file-name
is set to~/z/.emacs.d/init.el
.
