I did kind of both. I first got myself aquainted with mGAR on the build
farm (all the required applications are already in place and have the
proper paths) and then setup a local build environment. I still use the
build farm for the final package build, though.

The Getting Started Guide is what i used for setting up my local
environment. To get used to mGAR i pulled bits of information from "The
GAR Tutorial" and "Packaging with mGAR" mostly.
