You might want to wedge the clutch pedal up before pulling the cable otherwise you will also be fighting the ratchet. However wedge the pedal and it is that easy. 5 minutes tops to swap if the car is jacked up or on a ramp.
If you lift the clutch pedal it will release the ratchet enabling you to use your thumb to push all the way fordwards and disconnect the cable.

You don't need to wedge the pedal, push the quadrant forwards after lifting pedal cable comes out easy, then take off gearbox end, put box end on first, bit of tape to hold it in position repeat pedal action.
