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?
Thank you.
