I'm getting a bit confused with all the different approaches I'm seeing. The linux box I'm targetting is running clarkconnect (www.clarkconnect.com) and underlying system details are; [root@home ~]# cat /proc/version Linux version 2.6.18-8.1.14.3.cc (devel@cc4devel.lan) (gcc version 3.4.6 20060404 (Red Hat 3.4.6-8)) #1 SMP Mon Oct 22 17:57:16 EDT 2007 Thanks Greg ``` ## Greg Hauptmann, 2009-02-06 00:45 Subject: Re: how do I install "git" on Redhat linux?
