Asma, I don't know the internals of optim well, but I would assume that 
you could:

1. run “make” in the src/ directory of your optim working copy to create 
or update any oct files
2. run “octave --path ../octave-optim/src --path ../octave-optim/inst” 
or, alternatively, use corresponding addpath directives in your 
.octaverc file.

Then you should be able to use your changes to the optim package without 
committing them and installing / loading the package.
