Hi Ben,

Once you have cloned the source, you should be able to open it as a project in 
Intellij by just pointing to the root directory. 

To run an ES server from Intellij you can create a run configuration with these 
settings:

Main class: org.elasticsearch.bootstrap.Elasticsearch

VM options: -Xms256m -Xmx1g -Xss256k -Djava.awt.headless=true -XX:+UseParNewGC 
-XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC -XX:CMSInitiatingOccupancyFraction=75 
-XX:+UseCMSInitiatingOccupancyOnly -XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError 
-XX:HeapDumpPath=logs/heapdump.hprof -Delasticsearch -Des.foreground=yes 
-Djava.library.path=lib/sigar -ea 
-Des.config=<ABSOLUTE_PATH_TO_YOUR_CONFIG_DIR>/elasticsearch.yml  
-Des.logger.level=DEBUG

Working directory: I have this pointed to the top-level source dir. Not sure it 
matters.

Environment: ES_TEST_LOCAL=true

With that you should be able to hit the magical green arrow button to run it. 
You can set breakpoints in the code, go to a terminal and issue curl commands, 
and you'll be able to step through the code.
