The version of the default git bundled with the Linux system is often too old, and lacks certain features, which may break some tools. This post summarizes how to install newer versions of Git on Linux.
Install via package manager
CentOS
If you have root rights, you can install new version of git via yum.
# https://ius.io/setup
yum install \
https://repo.ius.io/ius-release-el7.rpm \
https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm
yum remove git
yum install git224
The version of git installed is 2.24.4.
The following also work:
yum -y install https://packages.endpoint.com/rhel/7/os/x86_64/endpoint-repo-1.7-1.x86_64.rpm
yum remove git
yum install git
Compile and install git from source
If you would like to install git from source. Run the following script:
wget https://github.com/git/git/archive/refs/tags/v2.31.1.tar.gz -O git.tar.gz
tar xvf git.tar.gz
cd git-*
mkdir -p $HOME/local
make configure
./configure --prefix=$HOME/local
make -j && make install
git will be installed under $HOME/local/bin. Then, add $HOME/local/bin to
your PATH:
export PATH="$HOME/local/bin:$PATH"
Run git --version to check the git version.
