I made fee changes that may have broke it.. maybe its a good idea to work backwards from the first stable release like 1.0.3 or whatenot looking at history.
Ok I'm a bit git nooby, this is what I'm doing to get a previous version:
git checkout 016bd1e7f8c289b05158e8005a69ff33bb262573 (whichever branch I want to use)
cd ~/devcoin/src && make -f makefile.unix
that then compiles what I think is the branch version, whose executable I can use to run. Is this the correct way to do it?
