Hi. I wanted to temporarily run git Org so I could test a fix by Nicolas
Goaziou. I have pulled the master branch and adapted local.mk. In that
file, I set:
prefix = ~/.emacs.d/locally_built_org
# Where local lisp files go.
# $(prefix)/emacs/site-lisp/org
lispdir= $(prefix)/site-lisp
# Where local data files go.
# $(prefix)/emacs/etc/org
datadir = $(prefix)/etc
# Where info files go.
# infodir = $(prefix)/info
infodir = /usr/local/emacs/share/info
I have built and run ‘make test’ (there were two unexpected test failures, but
they regard functionality I don’t use). In init.el I added
(add-to-list 'load-path
(concat user-emacs-directory
"locally_built_org/site-lisp"))
At that point (just before ‘sudo make install’), [1] scared me with the
warning "We strongly recommend to stick to a single installation method".
Does that mean I cannot install Org from git if I already have it from ELPA?
I wanted Org from git to just override Org from ELPA.

As a precaution, I have uninstalled ELPA org-plus-contrib before
‘sudo make install’. After testing, I installed ELPA org-plus-contrib
again. Was that really necessary?

You don't need to build or install anything. Make a test config file
that looks something like this:
(add-to-list 'load-path "<path to org mode repo>/lisp/")
(require 'org)
You can put any other settings you want to test in here. Assuming the
above file is called org-config.el, start emacs like so:
emacs -q -l /path/to/test/config/file

No, you can use "emacs -q" to avoid loading your main init file.

Oops, ignore the "Assuming .. org-conig.el" part.

That still loads the site init files. Besides, he might need something
else from ELPA for testing, so just starting up a bare-bones Emacs might
not be very helpful either.
