+=== Getting Selectricity ======================
+===============================================
+
+Selectricity is free software and is distributed under the GNU Affero
+General Public License version 3. You are free to use, modify, and
+distribute, or rework Selectricity under the terms of that license. Of
+course, we'd sure like it if you would send fixes back to us and tell us
+about cool stuff you do with our software!
+
+The best way to get Selectricity is just to download it from our source
+source repository. You'll need the Git version control system or
+source control manager to check it. You can get it here:
+
+  http://git-scm.com/
+
+Once you have it, getting the source code is pretty easy. You just need
+to check out a branch with a command like this:
+
+  git clone http://projects.mako.cc/source/selectricity/.git
+
+By default, this will create a working copy with the latest
+*development* version of our code. If you want the latest production
+version (i.e., what we're running on the site), you need to switch to
+the live version of the software which is kept in a branch called
+"live." Once you cloned the repository above, you can switch into the
+directory (i.e., run "cd selectricity") and then run the following
+command:
+
+  git checkout -b live origin/live
