If anyone is trying to install fireworks in developer mode and having issues then it might be because it is not the latest version (i.e. 2.0.2). I have tried it in two systems now and in both cases I have had to use

git reset --hard 435936de33d3b78f17b38b4e5e60023efd66c892

@ardunn - My assessment is that its something to do with git since it is working in its current release. The issue is that the current release is not being installed automatically.

I think @rdguha1995 is correct that this has to do with git. But I think the issue is dependent on how the user clones/pulls fireworks. I think this may arise when git is tracking the "master" branch and therefore fireworks version 1.9.7 gets installed, whereas the latest version (2.0.2) is on the "main" branch.

Thanks for looking into this @sivonxay

@rdguha1995 If you change to the main branch and try running your installation, does it work then?

@computron Can we just delete the master branch? Given that the "master" naming scheme is (1) no longer default and (2) it is causing confusion
