Twitter common libraries for the jvm

== Installation ==

Building requires:
+ jdk 1.6+
+ ant 1.8+
+ python 2.6+

The build tool is custom and hosted in the repository itself.  It requires the
mako templating engine and will ask you to install the mako package if you
don't already have it in your python environment.

== Usage ==

To build all jvm code and run all tests:
$ ./pants tests/java/com/twitter/common:all-tests!

To get help on pants:
$ ./pants help

TODO(John Sirois): migrate pants documentation to the public wiki
