Document how to install the github version on top of the version onstalled by TeXLive #23

Closed EmmanuelCharpentier closed 1 year ago

EmmanuelCharpentier commented 1 year ago

Perusing the project history shows that it evolves (and progresses) much faster than TeXLive (especially distribution-packaged versions of TeXLive...). However, how to to replace the TeXLive verison to the last Github version isn't absolutely obvious to the LaTeX end-user who would like to use the corrected/expanded/new features without diving in the finesses of Lua unit testing...

A small paragraph explaining how to install/uninstall rhe github version on top of TeXLive-installed one would be welcome...

Never mind : I managed to get the answer from my distro's (Debian) documentation ... and renounced the idea (too much work). I'll wait fot he next distro package upgrade.

Thanks for your feedback and the suggestion makes sense.

There is a simple description about installing the develop version in https://github.com/zepinglee/citeproc-lua/tree/main/example and I'll add it later to the PDF documentation and repository README.

Is there a link to the discussion? I have no awareness about the distribution-packaged version (like Debian) of TeX Live.
