<para>
You need to have the Yocto Project files available on your host system.
You can get files through tarball extraction or by cloning the <filename>poky</filename>
Git repository.
- Typically, cloning the Git repository is the method to use.
- This allows you to maintain a complete history of changes and facilitates you
- contributing back to the Yocto Project.
- However, if you just want a hierarchical file structure that contains the recipes
- and metadata that let you develop you can download tarballs from the
- <ulink url='http://yoctoproject.org/download'>download page</ulink>.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- Regardless of the method you use this manual will refer to the resulting
- hierarchical set of files as "the local Yocto Project files."

- [WRITER'S NOTE: I need to substitute correct and actual filenames for the

- If you download a tarball you can extract it into any directory you want using the
- tar command.
- For example, the following command extracts the Yocto Project 1.1 release tarball
- into the current working directory and sets up a file structure whose top-level
- directory is named <filename>poky-1.1</filename>:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- $ tar xfj poky-1.1.tar.bz2
- </literallayout>

- The following transcript shows how to clone the <filename>poky</filename> Git repository
- into the current working directory.
- The command creates the repository in a directory named <filename>poky</filename>:
- <literallayout class='monospaced'>
- $ git clone git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky
- Initialized empty Git repository in /home/scottrif/poky/.git/
