I read through the developer instructions (http://matplotlib.org/devel/index.html) and am still unsure as to the best workflow for matplotlib development. Specifically, I want to work on code that's under git control, but have the changes applied immediately (e.g., with %autoreload magic) if possible.

After these steps (fromhttp://matplotlib.org/devel/gitwash/set_up_fork.html):

git clone git@github.com:your-user-name/matplotlib.gitcd matplotlibgit remote add upstream git://github.com/matplotlib/matplotlib.git

I would have loved to add matplotlib to the python path (i.e., "matplotlib/lib/matplotlib"). However, doing so doesn't work (probably because of stuff missing that's added during the build).

Any help for setting up for development will be appreciated!
