git clone git@github.com:bshaffer/Donate-Nashville.git
cd Donate-Nashville
git submodule init
git submodule update

The easiest way is to do this is to clone symfony into some directory on your computer and then create a symbolic link into your project:

cd /path/to/put/symfony
git clone http://github.com/vjousse/symfony-1.4.git

cd /path/to/Donate-Nashville
ln -s /path/to/put/symfony/symfony-1.4 lib/vendor/symfony

mkdir log
mkdir cache
./symfony project:permissions

To set up your mysql database:

cp config/databases.yml.dist config/databases.yml

Uncomment out the dsn line in front of the mysql string, then update that string with the correct username and password. Finally, run the Symfony command to build the database.

./symfony doctrine:build --all --and-load

Make sure you have ruby and rubygems installed! Install Capistrano and Capistrano EXT gems

gem install capistrano capistrano-ext --no-ri --no-rdoc
