@eschwartz, Switch to it where? In the .bat file which I double-click when I want to run from source? If so, it currently contains 2 lines:
Code:
set CALIBRE_DEVELOP_FROM=D:\JS_git_devel\cal\src
"c:\program files\calibre2\calibre.exe"
Are you just suggesting I add the following line between the other 2 lines?
Code:
"C:\Program Files\Git\cmd\git" checkout py3
... or something else entirely? |
The git commands given are to swap between branches. What they are saying is to decide which branch you need and then run the command to update your local repository to that branch. Then you do what you are doing above, except you also need to make sure the calibre binaries match the branch.
What you might want to do is do the checkout for each branch in different directories. Then you can have a startup script that sets CALIBRE_DEVELOP_FROM to the appropriate directory and runs the correct binary. That should work to run the beta version of the portable install, but, I haven't tried it yet.
