How to fetch the overlay

Get Eselect Repository and Git (configure them if necessary):

root #emerge --ask app-eselect/eselect-repository dev-vcs/git

Adding the Emacs overlay is then as easy as:

root #eselect repository enable emacs

You can then regularly update to the latest reviewed revision:

root #emaint sync -r emacs
