Set up the local repository

• Select a Yocto Project 1.5 compatible host, install Django-1.5 and South 0.8.4. The "pip" application is recommended to manage the install process.

   $ sudo apt-get install pip
   $ sudo pip uninstall django
   $ sudo pip install django==1.5
   $ sudo pip install South==0.8.4

• Setup a local repository for the development branch

   $ cd <installdir>
   $ git clone git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky
   $ cd poky
   $ git remote add contrib http://git.yoctoproject.org/git/poky-contrib
   $ git fetch contrib
   $ git checkout contrib/toaster/master -b toaster-master

• Setup up your branch for pushes to the Yocto poky-contrib repository

   $ git remote set-url contrib git@git.yoctoproject.org:poky-contrib
