* Clone the telemetry experiment server using the following command: | |||
** '''hg clone http://hg.mozilla.org/webtools/telemetry-experiment-server/''' | |||
* Once cloned, a directory named '''telemetry-experiment-server''' should have been created | |||
* Switch into the '''telemetry-experiment-server''' directory | |||
* Checkout the latest branch using the following command: | |||
** '''hg checkout <branch #>''' | |||
*** Example: '''hg checkout 42b785b60c60''' | |||

* To install '''genshi''' simply type '''pip install Genshi''' in the terminal and follow the onscreen directions | |||
