~~~~~~~~~

If you are installing locally...

n.b. On Windows and on Mac OS X one *must* have a recent release of :code:`pip`
to retrieve the proper wheel from PyPI. Be sure to upgrade to the latest
version!

Building from source requires that you have the Python headers (usually a
package named :code:`python-dev`).

  $ export REPO_ROOT=grpc
  $ git clone https://github.com/grpc/grpc.git $REPO_ROOT
  $ cd $REPO_ROOT

Note that `$REPO_ROOT` can be assigned to whatever directory name floats your
fancy.
