If i will do a modification again in AP_Motors6DOF.cpp, should i need to repeat all this?

The original “detailed instructions” post I linked you to covers this (and more) in some depth

@EliotBR

• AP_Motors6DOF.cpp should be modified in your own branch, in the local repository on your computer
• it’s recommended to create multiple branches if you want to keep track of and try multiple configurations, so that you can easily switch between them (with checkout )
• you can commit a change if you want to save it for later
• you can push commits to your own remote (assuming you cloned from your remote, and not the ArduPilot one) if you want to share them with others (including yourself on another computer)
• you do the setup of cloning, checkout, installing prerequisites, and configuring waf once per computer
  • the checkout can be of your own branch if you’ve pushed it to your remote, instead of making a new branch and re-doing your changes every time
• you compile ArduSub on your computer, using ./waf sub in your local repository (with your changes in it)
  • this is the only step that needs to happen again when you’ve made changes on the same computer
  • you may need to configure waf again if you change board types at some point
