[Sugar-devel] Is it possible to access to my Host System home folder from sugar-build instance ?

[laurent bernabe]

Thanks,

I'll try this way.

Just one more question please : what should be the best practice ?

   1. Either to copy the folder with new modifications each time ?
   2. Or (I bet it is this one) : copy the folder one for all in
   sugar-build, then always work on this copy, but after having installed the
   program with "python setup.py dev" ?

Regards
