README

Cabal

This Cabal Git repository contains the following main packages:

[Cabal](Cabal/README.md): the Cabal library package ([license](Cabal/LICENSE))
[Cabal-syntax](Cabal-syntax/README.md): the .cabal file format library ([license](Cabal-syntax/LICENSE))
[cabal-install](cabal-install/README.md): the package containing the cabal tool ([license](cabal-install/LICENSE))
[cabal-install-solver](cabal-install-solver): the package containing the solver component of the cabal tool ([license](cabal-install-solver/LICENSE))

The canonical upstream repository is located at https://github.com/haskell/cabal.

Ways to get the `cabal-install` binary

GHCup (preferred): get GHCup using the directions on its website and run:
```
ghcup install --set cabal latest
```
Download from official website: the cabal-install binary download for your platform should contain the cabal executable.

Ways to build `cabal-install` for everyday use

With cabal-install: if you have a pre-existing version of cabal-install, run:
```
cabal install cabal-install
```
to get the latest version of cabal-install. (You may want to cabal update first.)
From Git: again with a pre-existing version of cabal-install, you can install the latest version from the Git repository. Clone the Git repository, move to its root, and run:
```
cabal install --project-file=cabal.project.release cabal-install
```
Bootstrapping: if you don't have a pre-existing version of cabal-install, look into the [bootstrap](bootstrap) directory.
