QGIS development support in GIS.lab

One of a goals of GIS.lab project is to provide clean, uniform and predictable environment which can be easy used for GIS software development and testing. Support for GIS development is optional and can be enabled in configuration file before client image is installed.
GIS.lab project heavily relies on features provided by QGIS, therefore I have decided to put together some tools to automatize building and installation of this software from Git source code. Now we have two scripts which should be run on client machine.

  • gislab-dev-qgis-install - download latest QGIS source code and make install
  • gislab-dev-qgis - run QGIS installed from source code
These scripts are very simple. There is a lot of room for improvements. Any ideas ?
