-Working from version control or a tarball
-=================================================
-
-To follow development or start experiments, checkout the
-complete code and documentation source with mercurial_::
-
-    hg clone https://bitbucket.org/hpk42/pytest/
-
-You can also go to the python package index and
-download and unpack a TAR file::
-
-    http://pypi.python.org/pypi/pytest/
-
-Activating a checkout with setuptools
---------------------------------------------
-
-With a working Distribute_ or setuptools_ installation you can type::
-
-    python setup.py develop
-
-in order to work inline with the tools and the lib of your checkout.
-
-If this command complains that it could not find the required version
-of "py" then you need to use the development pypi repository::
-
-    python setup.py develop -i http://pypi.testrun.org
-
