Installing git on Linux is very easy. Compared to the UNIX systems, installing git on Linux is a joy! 😃
You basically have several choices:
- If possible, install with the native package manager with a command
like:
yum install git(for RPM-based distributions), or
apt-get install git(for DPKG-based distributions).
Of course, if you install from the installation media, most Linux distributions include git there as well. - If that's not possible, install from source. [Download] (https://github.com/git/git/releases) the latest version and install with commands like:
make
sudo make install
