Hello devs and users, I want to lower the barrier of entry of GIMP development for people who want to contribute to GIMP. I just made a quick set-up development environment for GIMP. This way new developers can get their first build of GIMP in minutes (depending on internet connection) rather than hours of dependency discovery. ***It takes the pain out of building GIMP for the first time**.* https://github.com/samrocketman/vagrant-gimp Instructions: 1. Install vagrant https://www.vagrantup.com/ 2. Clone: git clone https://github.com/samrocketman/vagrant-gimp 3. cd vagrant-gimp 4. vagrant up 5. Log in with username: vagrant, password: gimp It will automatically provision Debian Jessie 64-bit, upgrade the OS, install all GIMP development dependencies, and build GIMP. It builds babl, gegl, and gimp from the master branch. After logging in, open a terminal and open the latest development version of GIMP by typing "gimp-2.9". All of the GIMP user settings are stored in ~/.config/GIMP/2.9. Right now only babl, gegl, and gimp are cloned. Some other ideas I have around this include cloning all of the GIMP project repositories (including the website, etc.). Please tell me your thoughts/feedback/ideas.
