How do I get the latest version of org-mode, with git? I got the version I have initially with 'git clone git://orgmode.org/org-mode.git', and I 'git refresh' every day, but that keeps me in 7.9.3c. I had to 'wget http://orgmode.org/org-latest.tar.gz' to get to 7.9.3d. What might I be doing incorrectly? I presumed that git fetch would keep me up to the latest version, but it seems not to. Thanks, Dave in St. Petersburg, FL

If you are doing the "right" thing, compiling and installing in /usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp/org or thereabouts, you need to do make install (probably as root). If you are on Windows, this won't work. Nick

Agreed: the best thing to do is ``make help'' and ``make helpall'', and
figure out what the proper make target is for one's purposes.

Sorry, I meant 'git fetch' from inside the org-mode directory.

You want "git pull", but using the appropriate target from the build system is even better since it will ensure that everything else is up-to-date, too.

I didn't realize 'make update' existed. That worked great!
