How to Install the Latest Version of Git on CentOS 7
Installing the latest version of Git on a CentOS 7 server can be a straightforward process if you use the right repositories. This guide will walk you through the steps to install Git using the Wandisco repository, which typically offers more recent versions of Git.
Steps to Install Git on CentOS 7
1. Update Your System
It’s always a good practice to start with updating your system’s packages. Run the following command in your terminal:
2. Add the Wandisco Git Repository
Wandisco provides a dedicated repository for newer versions of Git. You can add this repository to your system by creating a new repo file with the following commands
sudo tee /etc/yum.repos.d/wandisco-git.repo <<eof
[WandiscoGit]
name=Wandisco GIT Repository
baseurl=http://opensource.wandisco.com/centos/7/git/\$basearch/
enabled=1
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=http://opensource.wandisco.com/RPM-GPG-KEY-WANdisco
EOF</eof
3. Remove Any Existing Git Installation
If you have an older version of Git installed, it’s a good idea to remove it to prevent any conflicts
sudo yum remove git
4. Install Git from the Wandisco Repository
With the repository in place, install Git using the following command
sudo yum install git
5. Verify the Installation
After the installation is complete, you can verify the version of Git installed
git –version
By following these steps, you should be able to install a more up-to-date version of Git on your CentOS 7 system. Wandisco usually keeps up with the latest Git releases, so you can enjoy the newer features and improvements.
