The easiest way to install is not to install but tell Blender where to find the add-on. This way you don't have to worry about copying/moving files around. You can keep Blendercam source files separate from Blender if using source control ie git for developement and still easily test your changes in Blender.

## Get Blendercam source code from Github
|
||||
* The first step is to get the source code from the github repository.
|
||||
* Make a directory where blendercam from github will reside
|
||||
* At the command prompt change into the directory where blendercam will be and then type:
|
||||
* Make a parent directory where blendercam from github will reside
|
||||
* Assuming that Git is installed on your machine, at the command prompt change into the directory where blendercam will be and then type:
|
||||
|
||||
* `git clone https://github.com/vilemnovak/blendercam.git`
|
||||
|
||||
* 
|
||||
|
||||
* git will make a directory called blendercam in the current directory and then download the most recent version of blendercam on github.
|
||||
* git will make a subdirectory called blendercam in the current directory and then download the most recent version of blendercam on github.
|
||||
|
||||
## Setup Blender scripts alternate file path
|
||||
* The second step is to tell blender to also search an alternate path for add-ons. When blender starts up it will search its own paths for add-ons and will also search the alternate path that you add. This way an external source add-on can be used in Blender.

## Updating Blendercam
|
||||
* Every once in a while, maybe even daily, you will want to update your copy of Blendercam to match what is on Github.
|
||||
* at the command line change to the directory of blendercam
|
||||
* tell git to pull all the latest changes from Github and update your copy
|
||||
|
||||
`git pull`
|
||||
|
||||
After git finishes updating blendercam you can run blender. If blender was already running then restart it ie close blender and then start it.
