-Prerequisites
--------------
-
-`commit-patch` is known to run on Linux and Mac OS X. It is perl,
-so ideally it will run anywhere, but we have never tested in
-other environments, most notably Windows. Use at your own risk.
-
-`commit-patch` relies on several programs to get the job done:
-
-- [perl](https://www.perl.org)
-- [patch](https://www.gnu.org/software/patch/)
-- [interdiff](http://cyberelk.net/tim/software/patchutils/)
-- cp - Ideally installed on your system already. :-)
-
-and, of course, one of:
-
-- [git](https://git-scm.com/)
-- [mercurial](https://subversion.apache.org/)
-- [darcs](http://darcs.net/)
-- [subversion](http://subversion.tigris.org/)
-- [cvs](https://www.nongnu.org/cvs/)
-- [bazaar](https://bazaar.canonical.com/)
-- [monotone](https://www.monotone.ca/)

-## Installing Prerequisites
-
-On Debian/Ubuntu:
-
-    apt-get install patch patchutils
-
-On Fedora:

-    brew install patchutils

-**NOTE**
-
-If you see error like this: `you may need to install the IPC::Run
-module`, which means you are installing from source using `sudo make
-install` after cloning this repo. Here is how to install the needed
-perl module:
-
-    sudo perl -MCPAN -e shell
-    o conf init # on the prompt like perl> o conf init
-    ## exit from the prompt by typing `quit`
-    sudo perl -MCPAN -e 'install Bundle::CPAN' # to update CPAN
-    sudo perl -MCPAN -e 'install IPC::Run' # to install the module
-
-FYI: You do not need to install above module if you are using the
-`tar` version that comes with it.

-Development
+Notes
 -----------
 
-`commit-patch` uses [Carton](https://github.com/perl-carton/carton) for
-local development. Once Carton is installed:
-
-    carton install
-
-After than `commit-patch` and `commit-partial` should work. There is no
-need to `carton exec` them—the code autodetects the local libs.
