How do I include a custom framework (GitHub's Mantle) into my iOS 6 project?

Question

I want to use Github's Mantle framework in my iOS application. I am using XCode 4.5 and iOS SDK 6. How do I go about doing so?

This is the framework: https://github.com/github/Mantle

You should consider using CocoaPods to manage your projects' dependencies. It works just like Ruby gems, and you only have to do this:

Add a file named Podfile

platform :ios
'Mantle', '0.2'

Then install dependencies

$ gem install cocoapods
$ pod install

After this last command, don't use your .xcodeproj anymore. Use the .xcworkspace.

To look for other frameworks

$ pod search restkit // For instance
