Subject: Tracking Current Org Version
Date: Fri, 08 Aug 2014 11:39:08 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87tx5n9ejn.fsf@be.cs.appstate.edu> (raw)

Good day!

I am using 'git' to (I hope!) keep up to date on the latest Org distribution.

For me, there is a little confusion on just which version I'm using ...

I changed to the org-mode "git managed" directory, and entered:

        $ make update

        { Do I need to do more?  I followed the above with
          "make" and "make install" ... necessary? }

After performing the above yesterday and then checking with "M-x org-version" shows:

   Org-mode version 8.3beta (release_8.3beta-175-g59cd25

Is that the latest?  No date is included ...


In addition, I receive announcements from <elpa.gnu.org> that shows things like:

   Latest: org-20140804.tar, 2014-Aug-04, 5.21MB

How does *that* differ/compare to what 'git' is downloading?

What is the "best" way to do this?  ;-)


Thanks for your comments,
