1. Quit Emacs.

2. Delete ~/.emacs.d (and/or ~/.emacs) if it exists.

   This is where Emacs looks for configuration files, and deleting these files and directories will ensure that you start with a clean slate.

   (Windows users, your Emacs files will probably live in C:\Users\<USER_NAME>\AppData\Roaming\. So, for example, you would delete C:\Users\<USER_NAME>\AppData\Roaming\.emacs.d.)

3. git clone the Emacs configuration into ~/.emacs.d:

   git clone https://github.com/finalfantasia/emacs-for-clojure ~/.emacs.d

4. Launch Emacs.

   It should start installing packages. Note that compilation of some packages might cause warnings which, usually, can be ignored.

Everything is logically separated and the purose of every line is documented. init.el acts as a kind of table of contents. It's a good idea to eventually go through init.el and the files under the customizations directory so that you know exactly what's going on.
