# Development #
## Reconfiguring the Build System ##
If you have edited any of the files used by the build system, such as the
`Makefile.am` files, you will need to reconfigure your source.
To reconfigure the source run the following command from the root directory:
autoreconf && ./confgure
## Checking In Changes ##
If your source directory has been configured or built you will need to clean
the generated files before checking into the repository by running the
following command:
make local-clean
If everything was successful you should now have a pristine checkout.
## Preparing For Distribution ##
To build the source for distribution you should then run the following command:
./configure && make distcheck
If everything was successful you should see a `zip` file and/or a `tar.gz` file
sitting in the root directory ready for distribution.
## Release Checklist ##
1. Update the `README` file with important information.
2. Update the `NEWS` file with change information.
3. Update the `acinclude.m4` file with version information.
