Follow the instruction below if you want to install Shopware 4 using Git.

1.) Clone the git repository to the desired location using:

git clone https://github.com/ShopwareAG/shopware-4.git

In case you wish to contribute to Shopware, fork the master tree rather than cloning it and create a pull request via Github. For further information please visit the section "Get involved" in this document.
