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.
This tarball should work on most Linux systems. It does not depend
on anything except for glibc.
[download tarball](http://downloads.kitenet.net/git-annex/linux/)
To use, just unpack the tarball, `cd git-annex.linux` and run `./runshell`
-- this sets up an environment where you can use `git annex`
Warning: This is a last resort. Most Linux users should instead
[[install]] git-annex from their distribution of choice.
