I'm having some trouble following the "flow" of a FlexJS installation through the Installer... That's why my question might seem weird to the only one who knows how this stuff works ;-) I'm working my way through the steps best as I can, trying to figure out if I can find where the problem regarding Git, GitHub and the GCL is.
Maybe you can give me some pointers as to where the current setup breaks down (if it does at all, I'm not sure if I read you last email correctly, but you seem to imply there might not be a direct problem)?
