title: Best practice for maintaining updated Git binaries (Git by Git) on Mac OS X 10.5?
body: <p>On my Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) machine, I have installed Git 1.6.0.2 using the <a href="http://code.google.com/p/git-osx-installer/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">git-OSX-Installer</a> from Google Code. The installer installs Git to /usr/local/Git.</p>
  
  <p>I would now like to keep up with the latest stable Git release (Master branch), currently 1.6.0.3.</p>
  
  <p>Can I run "git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git" from within the /usr/local/Git directory, then Configure/Make/Install using XCode, or will that not work?</p>
  
  <p>Basically I'm looking for the best practice to keep Git updated to the latest stable version.</p>
