NAME
       jigit - Easy CD download tool


SYNOPSIS
       jigit <distribution>


DESCRIPTION
       jigit  will  automatically  download  the  files needed to create a Debian/Ubuntu CD, using as many files
       available locally as possible before downloading any that are missing.

       Configure jigit by editing /etc/jigit.conf or $HOME/.jigit.conf. The two settings that matter are:

       HOST   The base URL of the jigit update site.

       TMPDIR Where jigit should store its temporary files. These may take up a LOT of space!


HOW IT WORKS
       jigit will download a configuration file from the remote host, along with jigdo and  template  files.  It
       will  scan  your  machine for any of the files it requires (e.g. in the apt cache), including any old CDs
       that you may have - simply tell it where to look when it asks.  If any  files  are  missing,  jigit  will
       download  them. Once all files are available, jigit will build a new ISO image to match the one you would
       have downloaded.
