Did you search around a bit? There's lots of posts with people's setups. You certainly *can* install over the top of the Org that came with your version of Emacs (pointing it to install to /usr/local/share, I suppose), though I've never gone that route. Some mailing list examples from googling about Orgmode git installation: - Achim's post: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2013-05/msg00609.html - My setup: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2014-04/msg00396.html >From mine, you'll note I never "install" Org -- just clone to a directory, make, and tell Emacs about it in .emacs... done!
