Make a suggestion. When the new build system went live I had adapted
the description with explicit instructions for each installation method,
which was later simplified (a touch too much for my tastes) by Bastien —
which is what you look at now. It actually doesn't even work as
documented, I see now.

Using Org from Git can be done in two fundamentally different ways:
a) using the worktree directly as your installation,
b) using it as the source for an installation in a different place.
Installation is used here in the sense that your Emacs runs the
"installed" code.

Achim.
