Bootstrapping a new project
===========================
Download the ``bootstrap.py`` and execute it to fetch other infrastructure files
which will be needed to build the project::
mkdir cmake # does not have to be called "cmake" - take the name you prefer
cd cmake
wget https://github.com/scisoft/autocmake/raw/master/bootstrap.py
python bootstrap.py --update
This creates (or updates) the following files (an existing ``autocmake.cfg`` is
not overwritten by the script)::
cmake/
├── bootstrap.py # no need to edit
├── autocmake.cfg # edit this file
└── lib/
├── config.py # no need to edit
└── docopt.py # no need to edit
If you use version control, then now is a good moment to status/diff/add
the newly created files.
