CHECKOUT slicer source files

Check out the code using git and configure the git svn bridge:

1. While it is not enforced, we strongly recommend you to AVOID the use of SPACES for both the source directory and the build directory. We mean it.

1. Clone the github repository

   cd MyProjects
   git clone git://github.com/Slicer/Slicer.git

   The Slicer directory is automatically created after cloning Slicer.

2. Setup the development environment:

   cd Slicer
   ./Utilities/SetupForDevelopment.sh

   For more details see Development With Git.

3. Configure the git svn bridge to ensure the mapping with svn revision.

   cd Slicer
   git svn init http://svn.slicer.org/Slicer4/trunk
   git update-ref refs/remotes/git-svn refs/remotes/origin/master
   git checkout master
   git svn rebase
