Building Agit

Agit is Maven-based, and all of it's dependencies (apart from the Android SDK) are in Maven Central, so building from the command-line is easy:

export ANDROID_HOME=/home/roberto/tools/android-sdk   # Change to the location of your SDK!
git clone git://github.com/rtyley/agit.git agit-parent
cd agit-parent
mvn clean install

This will download all the project dependencies, compile the project, deploy the APK to your device, and run the integration tests.

Integration Tests (and how to survive them)

The integration tests will install toy-ssh-agent into the Android VM, this will interfere with the ConnectBot ssh-agent if you're using that for SSH support.
