- The package manager Composer.
- Composer global vendor directory in your path (e.g.
export PATH=~/.composer/vendor/bin:$PATH). - You might have to add
"minimum-stability": "dev"to your globalcomposer.json(by default in~/.composer/composer.json).
composer global require 'dominik/bleed=dev-master'
Composer will now install bleed and its dependencies.
composer global update 'dominik/bleed'
As your attorney, I advise you to not use this software to do stuff that's not legal under the laws applicable to wherever you may be located and whatever you are doing with it. If you need an analogy: It may be allowed to run over things in your own backyard with your car, but in most jurisdictions it's probably illegal to run over things in the streets.
