The way I tend to use ham is to put its repository inside my equivalent to 
your l4re directory. Having built the tool, I ascend to the top-level 
directory (your ~/l4re directory) and run the tool like this:

ham/ham init -u https://github.com/kernkonzept/manifest.git
ham/ham sync

This creates the fiasco and l4 repository hierarchies alongside the ham 
repository. I don't tend to run ham after that, but I don't really find it 
particularly approachable, anyway. I think I understand what problem it is 
trying to address (multi-repository versioning), but it needs more 
documentation and arguably more consistency with existing version control 
tools.

In any case, good luck with your L4Re investigations!

Paul
