git clone git://github.com/apache/buildr.git

To install Buildr locally from source:

cd buildr
export JRUBY_OPTS="-J-XX:MaxPermSize=312m -J-Xmx1024M"
export JAVA_OPTS="-Xmx1024m -XX:MaxPermSize=312m"
rake install

If the cutting edge doesn't work, make sure to check the CHANGELOG, to see which changes might have broken your build. To run all the test cases:

rake spec
