Hi,
I am using fedora and I don't have the root access. The git installed on the
system is 1.5.2.2 and I want to upgrade it to 1.7.1
I downloaded git and followed the instructions and installed the files in my
$HOME/bin/git folder. Git has created four folders in this folder :
bin/ lib/ libexec/ share/
Now what should I do to make fedora read the files from this new git rather
than using the default older git?
Thanks

Ouch, you must be using a really ancient version of Fedora. Fedora 11
is the oldest release currently supported and it contains 1.6.2.5.
1.7.1 is in updates-testing for both Fedora 12 and 13.
Perhaps it's also worth mentioning for the archives that the fedora
packages are designed to cleanly build in mock¹ for RHEL/CentOS >= 4 as
well as previous Fedora releases.
¹ mock is fedora's main build tool, usable with little to no
configuration on RHEL/CentOS/Fedora systems.
