+# This sets up the environment to use a local Ansible source checkout,
+# allowing a specific version to be used, or even a customised version.
+#
+# This is assumed to be symlinked from `.ansible-src/` to the
+# directory to the one containing this repository. Check it out like
+# this at a location of your choice:
+#
+#     cd $WHEREVER
+#     git clone $ANSIBLE_GIT_REPO ansible-src
+#
+# Then symlink it into this directory:
+#
+#     cd $HERE
+#     ln -sfnr $WHEREVER $HERE/.ansible-src
+#
+# It also sets the environment so that the untility `pass` will use a
+# local password-store directory, not ~/.password-store. Likewise,
+# this is assumed to be in a symlinked directory called
+# `.password-store/`. Ansible has support for `pass` and can use it to
+# retrieve sensitive information which needs to be committed to an
+# encrypted password store.
+#
+# See https://www.passwordstore.org/
+#
+# To use the environment, run this script, which will spawn a subshell
+# with the correct environment:
