Updating git on linux

Как установить самую последнюю версию Git в Ubuntu

Установить Git на Ubuntu очень легко. Git доступен в главном репозитории Ubuntu и вы можете его установить с помощью терминала:

Достаточно легко, не так ли?

Существует лишь небольшая проблема (которая может и не быть проблемой вовсе), и это версия Git’а, которую он устанавливает.

В системе LTS стабильность программного обеспечения имеет первостепенное значение, поэтому Ubuntu 18.04 и другие дистрибутивы часто предоставляют более старую, но стабильную версию программного обеспечения, которая хорошо протестирована с выпуском дистрибутива.

Поэтому, когда вы проверите версию Git’а, вы увидите, что на самом деле установлена версия, которая старше, чем текущая версия Git’а, доступная на сайте Git-проекта:

На момент написания данной статьи версия, доступная на сайте, была 2.25. Так как же тогда установить последний Git на Ubuntu?

Установка последней версии Git в дистрибутивах Linux, основанных на Ubuntu

Один из способов — установка из исходных текстов. Этот крутой старый метод — не для всех. К счастью, есть PPA, доступный от команды Ubuntu Git Maintainers, который вы можете использовать, чтобы легко установить последнюю стабильную версию Git.

Даже если вы ранее устанавливали Git с помощью apt, он будет обновлен до последней стабильной версии.

Прелесть использования PPA заключается в том, что если будет выпущена новая стабильная версия Git’а, то вы получите её с обновлениями системы. Просто обновите Ubuntu, чтобы получить последнюю стабильную версию Git’а.

Настройка конфигурации Git (для разработчиков)

Если вы установили Git для разработки, то вскоре вы начнете клонировать репозиторий, вносить изменения и коммитить их.

Если вы попытаетесь закоммитить свой код, вы можете увидеть ошибку ‘Пожалуйста, скажите мне, кто вы’, подобную этой:

Она возникает потому, что вы не настроили в Git’е свои персональные данные, которые являются обязательными.

Как уже подсказывает ошибка, вы можете настроить глобальную конфигурацию Git’а таким образом:

С помощью этой команды вы можете проверить конфигурацию Git’а:

Команда должна показывать такой выход:

Эта конфигурация хранится в файле

/.gitconfig. Вы также можете изменить её вручную.

В заключение.

Я надеюсь, что это краткое руководство помогло вам установить последнюю версию Git на Ubuntu. С PPA вы легко получите последнюю версию Git’а.

Если у вас есть какие-либо вопросы или предложения, пожалуйста, не стесняйтесь задавать их в разделе комментариев. Быстрые реакции и «благодарность» также приветствуется 🙂

How to Update Git

Git is a version control system that allows multiple developers to work on the same project while tracking changes and revisions. Keeping Git up to date brings you the latest features and usability improvements.

In this tutorial, you will learn how to update to the latest version of Git on Linux, Windows, and macOS.

• A system running Linux, Windows, or macOS
• An installed version of Git
• Access to the terminal window (Linux, macOS) or command prompt (Windows)
• An account with administrator-level privileges

How to Check the Current Git Version?

To check the current version of Git, use the following command:

This command works on all operating systems. This example uses Windows:

How to Update Git

Below, we list different ways you can update your version of Git, depending on the operating system you are using. Skip to the section applicable for your machine.

Update Git on Linux

Note: To update Git on a Linux machine, use the appropriate package manager. When working with Git on CentOS, use a package manager such as yum or pacman .

This example shows how to update Git on Ubuntu.

Start by updating the system packages with the following command:

Update Git by using:

When prompted, type Y and press Enter to confirm the installation.

To verify the installation has completed, check the Git version one more time:

Another way to update Git on Linux is to install it from scratch using the original source code. Check out our guide to installing Git on Ubuntu for details.

Update Git on Windows

The method you use to update Git on Windows depends on the version of Git you are currently running.

For versions prior to 2.14.1, uninstall Git from your system and install a copy of the latest version from scratch. Check out our guide to installing Git on Windows for more details.

For versions from 2.14.2 to 2.16.1, use the following command in your command prompt:

For versions 2.16.1 on, update Git with:

The output above appears when you are running the latest Git version.

Update Git on Mac

The easiest way to update Git on Mac is to use the official installer. Download the installation file from the Git website. Run the installation and follow the install wizard to update Git to the latest version.

Note: Using the install wizard to update Git overwrites the current installation.

Another method is to update Git using Homebrew. If you don’t have Homebrew already, install it by using:

Update Homebrew to make sure you have the latest installation packages:

Install the latest version of Git with Homebrew:

If you already have Git installed using Homebrew, update to the latest version with:

Check the current Git version to confirm the update:

Note: If checking the Git version after updating results in an output that includes (Apple Git-101) , your system is still running the default Apple version of Git instead of the official one. Change your local path to the Homebrew version of Git to fix this issue:
export PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH

After following this tutorial, you should have a fully updated version of Git installed on a Linux, Windows, or macOS machine.

Take a look at our Git Commands Cheat Sheet for a comprehensive primer on working with Git. If you come across a Git merge conflict, make sure to read our article How to Resolve Merge Conflicts in Git.

The Atlassian Community is here for you.

[Security vulnerability CVE-2016-2324 & CVE-2016-2315] If you are running a Git version older than 2.4.11, 2.5.5, 2.6.6 or 2.7.4 (all released 17 Mar 2016 ), you should upgrade Git as soon as possible.

This page describes how to:

The information on this page applies to installing or upgrading Git on either your local machine, or on the Bitbucket Data Center and Server instance.

Check your version of Git

The versions of Git supported by Bitbucket are listed on Supported platforms .

You can check your current version of Git by running the git —version command in a terminal (Linux, macOS) or command prompt (Windows).

If you don’t see a supported version of Git, you’ll need to either upgrade Git or perform a fresh install, as described below.

Install or upgrade Git on Linux

Use your package manager to install Git. For example, on Ubuntu 13.10, use:

Alternative download options are:

• Download the latest stable Git release from the Git website.
• If you are using a different Linux distribution, you may need to use a different package repository to get the latest stable version of Git.
• If you need the most recent version of Git, you might need to install it from source.

Now check the Git version – you should see the new version of Git.

If you still can’t see the expected Git version, you may need to add the Git install location to your path. Open your

/.profile file in a text editor and add this line, where

is the install location for Git:

You can use the which git command to find the install location for Git.

Install or upgrade Git on macOS

Download the latest stable Git release from the Git website.

Click on the downloaded .dmg file, then double-click the .pkg icon to run the installer. This will install the new version of Git over the existing version:

Alternatively, you can:

• Use the native Git bundled with macOS.
• Use Homebrew to download and install Git.

Now check the Git version – you should see the new version of Git.

If you still can’t see the Git version, you may need to add the Git install location to your path. Open your

/.profile file in a text editor and add this line, where

is the install location for Git:

You can use the which git command to find the install location for Git.

Install or upgrade Git on Windows

Download the latest stable Git release from the Git website.

Run the Git installer, ensuring that you install into the same location as any existing Git installation. You can use where git to locate existing installations. Installing Git for Windows (msysGit) also installs a supported version of Perl.

To ensure that git.exe is available in the path, choose either:

• Run Git from the Windows Command Prompt, or
• Run Git and included Unix tools from the Windows Command Prompt.

Do not select Use Git Bash only when installing or upgrading Git for the Bitbucket instance — this will not work.

Now, check the Git version – you should see the new version of Git.

msysGit is the only supported distribution when running Bitbucket on Windows. Cygwin Git is not supported and has known issues.

If you have successfully installed msysGit but you receive the error «Unable to find git!» when installing Bitbucket, you should abort the installation, restart the Windows server, then restart the Bitbucket installation.

Restart Bitbucket if necessary

If you’ve been installing or upgrading Git for the Bitbucket instance, rather than for your local machine, you’ll need to stop and restart Bitbucket so that it will pick up the upgraded version of Git. See Start and stop Bitbucket for details.

It looks like it uses sudo to install itself to a specific location on your computer; sudo requires your password. You will have to put your macOS user’s password.

This is badly designed, it should actually explain why it is using sudo .

They (incorrectly) copied the entire markdown-laden code-block and pasted that into the bash terminal, which of course bash cannot interpret as a command. Do not paste the markdown (e.g., «`shell ) into bash — that part is just for formatting the code on GitHub.

Your Ubuntu version is no longer maintained. You need to update your distribution to a version that is within its support lifetime. For example, try using this upgrade combination:
