I have little experience with SCM/VCS's etc. I am thinking it is time to learn git, and am going through the documentation and some tutorials.
There is a Mac OS X version listed here: http://git-scm.com/download It is stable, with UB being supported. I can not locate this in MacPorts. Am I overlooking the obvious? If so, can someone give me the port name please? Looking at the INSTALL file in the source, first lines: Normally you can just do "make" followed by "make install", and that will install the git programs in your own ~/bin/ directory. If you want to do a global install, you can do ... This leads me to believe that standard install methods are to install for yourself, in your own ~/bin. If I were to make a Portfile, assuming one does not exist, am I breaking a tradition with git that it normally not be globally accessible? Am I correct that if I were to set the git prefix in MacPorts to ${prefix}, MacPorts would error and disallow a local user directory installation?
