cd /usr/src/
git clone https://github.com/signalwire/freeswitch.git freeswitch
cd freeswitch

# Because we're in a branch that will go through many rebases, it's
# better to set this one, or you'll get CONFLICTS when pulling (update).
git config pull.rebase true

# ... and do the build

# The -j argument spawns multiple threads to speed the build process, but causes trouble on some systems
./bootstrap.sh -j

# if you want to add or remove modules from the build, edit modules.conf
vi modules.conf

# remove a module by adding the '#' comment character at the beginning of the line
# containing the name of the module to be skipped in the build process

./configure
make
make install

# Install audio files:
