13.1.2 Where to Put Emacs?
Regardless of where you go to get the source, where you put the files you download is really up to you. For our Unix-based systems, we downloaded everything into /usr/local/install. This is a fine place to start, but if you have a favorite download/development area, feel free to use that. In fact, you can even put everything in your home directory while you're building things.
The only thing to remember is that the build process involves a lot of files that you won't need after everything's done. Make sure you put things somewhere that's easy to clean up when all is said and done.
As for the final destination of the executable, that's also up to you. Most Unix systems (including Mac OS X) will do well to use the /usr/local hierarchy. That directory is both common and the default choice in the build scripts. If you're not on a machine that you have complete control over, though, you can certainly install Emacs into your home directory (or a subdirectory you keep for you own software).
One quick note on using your home directory for the executable version of Emacs: it does make it easy to back up Emacs or transfer it to another machine if you upgrade your system (we know from experience!). However, it can limit who has access to Emacs. If another user works on the same machine and you both want to use Emacs, installing to a common directory (like /usr/local ) is definitely the way to go.
