Comment(by jason):

 Replying to [comment:6 mpatel]:
 > The extcode, sage_scripts, and sage packages use Mercurial in their
 `spkg-install`s to merge changes into an existing repository.  This could
 be more efficient than copying every file every time.  Can we do that
 here?

 Can we make a new ticket for that?

 In fact, I like this approach better (backup and copy), since it plays
 nicely with patch queues.  The merge approach messes everything up if you
 forgot to pop all of your patches off.

 packages` and `devel`?  Is it practical to do just the latter?


 No, I don't think it installs twice (you can check the files to make
 sure).  The setup.py develop installs under $SAGE_ROOT/devel/ and changes
 the site-packages folder to refer to that location.
