Hi
Nice article, but http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/git-1.5.4.rc4.tar.gz is no longer available on the link above, is there somewhere else it found?

Thanks for the tutorial. Worked like a charm on 1.7.1 on my Dreamhost PS, but just remember to do the path export!

As a follow-up on my last post, above, the correct path will have your Dreamhost username between /home/ and /packages. The blogging software removed the brackets I put there to show that.

Thanks! Before they do git –version at the end, they need to update their PATH variable in .bash_profile:

export PATH=/home//packages/libexec/git-core:$PATH
