To select the svn snapshot, cd to it and run "./setup.py develop". To select 0.8a4, run "easy_install TurboGears==0.8a4". If you are installing scripts to /usr/local/bin, make those: ./setup.py develop --script-dir=/usr/local/bin and easy_install --script-dir=/usr/local/bin TurboGears==0.8a4 respectively. Both of these commands work by updating easy-install.pth to include the needed packages, and overwriting the current scripts with wrappers for the selected version. (Note that the "==0.8a4" part is needed so that easy_install doesn't see the installed 0.9 development version and decide that's the best matching version.) Neither of these commands will reinstall anything but the .pth and scripts, unless you've updated the Subversion edition and it wants a newer dependency of something.
