For my development work I do this:

  - clone the git repo so I have it here: "~/src/hyperbole"
  - in the hyperbole folder I run "make bin" which will create elc files and
  - in my "~/.emacs" I have this:

        (add-to-list 'load-path "~/src/hyperbole"))
        (load "hyperbole-autoloads")
        (load "hversion")
        (load "hyperbole")

There might be other leaner ways to get the latest snapshot but I have not 
tried them out.

Yours
