:( Sorry for the long post. I am a newbie, so I don't really know what I am doing. I am running Mepis 7.0 (Debian based) and have installed git 4.3.20-10, git-core 1:1.4.4.4-2, cogito, and ccache 2.4. When I attempt to run according to the wiki this is what I get:
Rob@Office:~$ whereis git-core
git-core: /usr/share/git-core
Rob@Office:~$ cd /usr/share/
Rob@Office:/usr/share$ su root
Password:
root@Office:/usr/share# git clone git://source.winehq.org/git/wine.git wine-git
git, the filemanager with GNU Interactive Tools, is now called gitfm.
If you are looking for git, Linus Torvald's content tracker, install
the cogito and git-core packages and see README.Debian and git(7).
This transition script will be removed in the debian stable
release after etch.
If you wish to complete the transition early, install git-core
and use (as root):
update-alternatives --config git
Press RETURN to run gitfm
/usr/bin/gitfm: warning: invalid extra options ignored
