 Once you've retrieved the branch's code, you'll need to change your Python
 ``site-packages`` directory so that it points to the branch version of the
 ``django`` directory. (The ``site-packages`` directory is somewhere such as

-If you're using Django 0.95 or earlier and installed it using
-``python setup.py install``, you'll have a directory called something like
-``Django-0.95-py2.4.egg`` instead of ``django``. In this case, edit the file
-``setuptools.pth`` and remove the line that references the Django ``.egg``
-file. Then copy the branch's version of the ``django`` directory into
-``site-packages``.
