Here are steps to install Git system
When we use Git, we may use it as a Git server or a Git client. No matter which one, we use the same installation process. So, what is the difference between a Git server and a client? The difference falls on the Git daemon and the repository type we initialize. In this article, I only discuss the installation here. The repository operations will be talked elsewhere.
Step 1
Download Git from https://github.com/git/git
Step 2
Install dependency libraries
yum install curl-devel expat-devel gettext-devel \ openssl-devel zlib-devel
Install dependency libraries to generate documentation.(optional)
yum install asciidoc xmlto docbook2x
Notice. This YUM command may not work to install the documentation libraries due to loss of maintenance of packages.
Step 3
tar -zxf git-2.0.0.tar.gz cd git-2.0.0 make configure ./configure --prefix=/usr
If you want to install Git system only
make all make install
If you want to install documentation
make all doc info make install install-doc install-html install-info
