How do I get the latest version of org-mode, with git?  

I got the version I have initially with 
'git clone git://orgmode.org/org-mode.git', and I
'git refresh' every day, but that keeps me in 7.9.3c.

I had to 'wget http://orgmode.org/org-latest.tar.gz' to get to 7.9.3d.

What might I be doing incorrectly?  I presumed that git fetch would keep
me up to the latest version, but it seems not to.

Thanks,

Dave in St. Petersburg, FL

You mean ``git pull''? I get

$ git refresh
git: 'refresh' is not a git command. See 'git --help'.

Depending on how you run (uncompiled from the git repo? compiled and
installed in /usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp? etc, etc.), you need to
do

	make autoloads

at the very least. If you are doing the "right" thing, compiling and
installing in /usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp/org or thereabouts, you need to do

	make install

(probably as root).

If you are on Windows, this won't work.

Agreed: the best thing to do is ``make help'' and ``make helpall'', and
figure out what the proper make target is for one's purposes.

Sorry, I meant 'git fetch' from inside the org-mode directory.

That doesn't even try to touch your work-tree.  You want "git pull", but
using the appropriate target from the build system is even better since
it will ensure that everything else is up-to-date, too.

I didn't realize 'make update' existed.  That worked great!
