This allows us fiddle with the Ceph source while experimenting, +without polluting the upstream Ceph repository. We do intend to upstream any +patches that make sense though. + +That said, we have the `aquarist-labs/ceph` repository as a requirement for +this project. We can't guarantee that our instructions, or the project as a +whole, will work flawlessly with the original Ceph project from `ceph/ceph`. ### Running
