Installing git on Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty)
Last night I was working on a new ubuntu 9.04 server on ec2 (it was ami-0d729464 from http://alestic.com if you're interested). Installing git via aptitude would have given me an older version so here's what I did.
$ sudo apt-get build-dep git-core git-doc libssl-dev $ wget http://kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/git-1.6.3.3.tar.gz $ tar -xzf git-1.6.3.3.tar.gz $ cd git-1.6.3.3/ $ ./configure $ make all doc $ sudo make install install-doc $ git --version git version 1.6.3.3

Thanks for the instructions. I had to run configure before make.

Good catch, Joe. Thanks!
I verified that I too had to run configure and I updated the instructions above.

If you’re doing this on a headless box, w/o the GUI dev libs installed, add the following to your make commands
EXTRA=’NO_TCLTK=YesPlease’
./configure
make all doc ${EXTRA}
sudo make install install-doc ${EXTRA}
prevents it from dying on the missing GUI components
