The best way I know of is to point FB to a version of the SDK created by the Flex Installer. Then, add flex-sdk\frameworks\projects\XXXX as Flex library projects in the same workspace. Then, in your test application, add the library projects as a 'Project dependency'. This way, you can continue to modify the flex library projects (i.e. editing the git repo directly) while making sure your test app is using your latest changes.
Note: For the flex-sdk\frameworks\projects\textLayout Flex library project, you need to add flex-tlf\textLayout\src as a 'Source path'. This has worked for me reliably. Hope this helps you with your current endeavor.
