Unable to update Git on Ubuntu

I am trying to set up Git on an Ubuntu Machine (I'm using a Samsung Chromebook running Ubuntu 12.04).

When I entered "sudo apt-get install git" and it successfully installed Git 1.79

user@ChrUbuntu:~$ git --version
git version 1.7.9.5

I can't figure out what I am doing wrong here. Any suggestions?


For new installations of Ubuntu I would first try this to get the latest updates

sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

For more info on this see https://askubuntu.com/questions/81585/what-is-dist-upgrade-and-why-does-it-upgrade-more-than-upgrade

That should solve it but if not, add the repository from these guys https://launchpad.net/~git-core/+archive/ppa

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:git-core/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install git

This way you don't have to build it, etc.


也许你需要为最新版本构建

wget git-core.googlecode.com/files/git-1.8.1.1.tar.gz
tar -zxf git-1.8.1.1.tar.gz
cd git-1.8.1.1
make prefix=/usr/local all
sudo make prefix=/usr/local install

If you are trying to upgrade to the latest version of Git, you should do:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

This will update all your packages, as well as Git.
BTW, latest version of Git on my Kubuntu 12.10 is 1.7.10.4 .
