If your Linux distribution does not have git-annex packaged up for you,
|
||
|
|
you can either build it [[fromscratch]], or you can use a handy
|
||
|
|
prebuilt tarball of the most recent release.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This tarball should work on most Linux systems. It does not depend
|
||
|
|
on anything except for glibc.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
[download tarball](https://downloads.kitenet.net/git-annex/linux/current/)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To use, just unpack the tarball, `cd git-annex.linux` and run `./runshell`
|
||
|
|
-- this sets up an environment where you can use `git annex`, as well
|
||
|
|
as everything else included in the bundle.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Alternatively, you can unpack the tarball, and add the directory to your
|
||
|
|
`PATH`. This lets you use `git annex`, without overriding your system's
|
||
|
|
own versions of git, etc.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Warning: This is a last resort. Most Linux users should instead
|
||
|
|
[[install]] git-annex from their distribution of choice.
