Hi all,
I keep up to date with org-mode using:
git pull && make clean && make && make doc && make install
It works very well except that my "Info Documentation" is not updated.
It is still some old version.
What do I have to do to get it updated?
BR / Johan

make info
and add the following snippet to you .emacs.el:
;; add documentation from the git clone
(eval-after-load "info"
'(progn
(info-initialize)
(add-to-list 'Info-directory-list "~/lisp/org-mode/doc")))

3 options:
1. Set this variable to the appropriate path in your init file
;; Info directory
(add-to-list 'Info-default-directory-list
(expand-file-name "/opt/emacs-lisp/share/info"))
2. Add to the INFOPATH variable in your shell profile file:
e.g. (bash)
~/.bash_profile
..
export INFOPATH=/opt/emacs-lisp/share/info:$INFOPATH
3. Edit your Makefile to reflect the proper infopath
# Where local software is found
prefix=/opt/emacs-lisp
..
# Where info files go.
infodir = $(prefix)/share/info

1) make sure prefix on line 16 of Makefile is set correctly, if your real
prefix is /usr, that line shouldn't read /usr/local, 2) do make
info-install and then do info org and see if the documentation doesn't
suddenly update itself. hth.On Fri, 29 Jul 2011, suvayu ali wrote:

Is el-get like package.el? In that case how does one track the git
version of org-mode? I think the OP is using the git HEAD.

Sort of.

That's the default.
