OK, what you need to do is cd into the directory then type
./sage
or
./sage -b
to build the changes. By default, bash looks for commands in a
specified set of directories (the PATH environment variable) but if
you specify a path (./sage means the "sage" file in the current
directory) it will forgo the lookup and use that one.
