I've always had trouble when dev servers and live servers have differences. Apart from how well 1.4 and 1.5 might work with eachother, I'd recommend building from latest stable (1.5.5.1) on both machines anyway. I build on 7.10 and the 2-line default instructions at the top of git/INSTALL work pretty well. I get an error if I try to build the info, so just leave out the info and install-info, and it should be ok.

Now the Live box is running Ubuntu 7.04, and installs git version 1.4.* through apt-get.
