23037	clarification on windows install and setup detail	jomtung@…	nobody	"I noticed that the windows install for my own machine was confusing to figure out, but takes 3 minutes once going.  I wrote a five step guide starting with python and git installed for a manual installation on  windows using git.  I'm using windows xp, python 2.7.8, git 1.9.4.msysgit.0

1. find the site-packages directory in your python install with the shell command - [python -c ""import site; print(site.getsitepackages())""] 

2. cd to that site-packages directory

3. in shell - [git clone https://github.com/django/django.git django-trunk]

4. still in shell - [cd django-trunk]

5. now in the django-trunk directory in shell - [python setup.py install]

Also, I found a typo in the development version setup doc - https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/intro/tutorial01/

The command shown - [$ django-admin.py startproject mysite] should be [$ django-admin startproject mysite] for 1.7 and above.  The github repo shows the typo on line 56 - https://github.com/django/django/blob/master/docs/intro/tutorial01.txt.

Would it be quicker to submit a pull request for something this minor next time?

Thanks!
