<title>Getting Local Yocto Project Files and BSP Files</title>
<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
1.1 release throughout this example once they become available.]

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>
</para>
<para>
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
