I did the basic checkout from the public Git repository and have been looking at that. It's very possible I've missed it because I'm not very familiar with Koha but I can't find any of the zebra database stuff.
In short, is it possible to setup an instance of Koha using the code from the repository? And, if so is there somewhere in particular I should be looking for help?
I don't know. I've not managed it yet. I have a running koha 3.0, but it doesn't seem to work well enough to test fully, even. I'm not sure if it's bugs in koha or my installation. This is part of the problem delaying the 3.0 installer. The installation process I followed was: 1. Prepare System and Install Dependencies (see http://serene.ttllp.co.uk/~mjr/koha-installer/ and the packages in http://serene.ttllp.co.uk/~mjr/ ) 2. update config files (see misc/koha.xml and misc/koha.conf and misc/zebra, but we have to write koha-httpd.conf - or maybe koha-httpd.conf.PL - I plan to write that this week.) 3. create database, user for koha 4. start Zebra 5. Run Web Installer to create database and configure settings I've cut some detail because I think most of it needs updating.
