 svndigest is a tool to extract development information and statistics
-from a subversion repository. 
+from a subversion repository.  Svndigest is written in C++ and
+extracts repository history using the subversion API. The resulting
+report is written to a user specifiable directory in HTML format.
 
 See the file NEWS for the user-visible changes from previous releases.
 In addition, there have been bugs fixed.
 
-For general building and installation instructions, see the file INSTALL.
-
 svndigest is free software. See the file COPYING for copying conditions.
 
 Directory `bin` contains main program and is location for svndigest
-binary. Directory `build_support` contains a autotool macro that is
+binary. Directory `build_support` contains an autotool macro that is
 used to find APR location. Directory `doc` contains documentation
 mainly in file `readme.txt`. Most of the code can be found in
 directory `lib`. Directory `test` contains the code for tests and the
 test repository (see README.developer).

+
+== Requirements ==
+
+ * Subversion development files, i.e., header files and program
+   libraries, version 1.4 or later.
+
+ * This item should not be an issue if item above is fulfilled; the
+   Apache Portable Runtime (APR) should be available if the subversion
+   API was successfully compiled. Subversion depends on APR and in
+   consequence, the dependency is inherited by svndigest.
+
+ * Gnuplot.
+
+ * A standard C++ compliant compiler with one extension: svndigest
+   must be compiled with a C++ compiler that supports 'long long'
+   types - GCC does this. This requirement arises from the fact that
+   one of the underlying libraries, APR, is using 'long long'. APR is
+   written in C and the C standard allows 'long long'.
+   Even though the source is compiled with the -pedantic flag (which
+   should catch the non C++ standard 'long long') there is another
+   flag to suppress 'long long' diagnostics, -Wno-long-long.
+
+
+== Installing svndigest ==
+
+In file INSTALL you'll find the generic FSF install instructions. To
+compile and install svndigest you can follow the usual autotools path:
+
+ * `./configure`
+
+ * `make`
+
+ * Optionally, `make check` to run test programs. Some test programs
+   are not enabled by default and the disabled tests should only be
+   run by developers.
+
+ * `make install`
+
+The `./configure` script accepts a few options of interest for
+svndigest. You can provide `./configure` with APR and subversion API
+location information with `--with-apr=DIR` and `--with-svn=DIR`,
+respectively. `--enable-staticbin` will create a static
+svndigest binary. (Actually as static as the underlying program
+libraries allows it to be, i.e., some external libraries might not
+have been created/installed in static versions.) 
+
+If you grabbed the source from the subversion repository you need to
+run `./bootstrap` to setup autotools files (see README.developer).
