# Following the latest source

These are the instructions if you just want to follow the latest nipype source, but you don’t need to do any development for now.

The steps are:

- Install git
- get local copy of the git repository from github
- update local copy from time to time

## Get the local copy of the code

From the command line:

    git clone git://github.com/nipy/nipype.git

You now have a copy of the code tree in the new `nipype` directory.

## Updating the code

From time to time you may want to pull down the latest code. Do this with:

    cd nipype
    git pull

The tree in `nipype` will now have the latest changes from the initial repository.
