My git version is listed as 2.17.1. If I try to just do sudo apt install git..It will tell me I have the latest version and this is after running apt update. I can not get the PPA to work because there is no GPG Key to input and thus Ubuntu will automatically keep it from use due to insecurity. Can you please advise me on how to best update GIT to the current stable version please.

Regards, Matthew
