The version from the ppa seems to be 1.7.0.4-1ubuntu0.2 but the version of git being in the native ubuntu quantal repository (I assume you're running Ubuntu?) is already 1.7.10.4-1ubuntu1 (http://packages.ubuntu.com/quantal/git) However to get an unoptimized version with debug symbols you could do this: # get the source: git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git/ cd git # read INSTALL, the section starting at # > Git is reasonably self-sufficient, but does depend on a few external # > programs and libraries # this is a guess, maybe you need more or less packages, but you'd need the -dev packages for the C-headers sudo apt-get install libz-dev libopenssl-dev libcurl-dev libexpat-dev # Now disable optimizing by overwriting default compile flags: echo "CFLAGS=-g" > config.mak # compile and install make make install # installs to ~/bin # open a new shell or relogin, and see if you're using the version you just build: git --version # git version 1.8.4.rc1....
