I've just set up my revo and want to update my Night skin using Git.

I've used XBMCFreaks latest iso and installed to the Revo HDD.

I've run these commands using putty:

sudo apt-get install git-core

cd ~/.xbmc/addons


git clone git://github.com/bartowski/skin.night.git

and I get back:

-bash: git: command not found

Can someone explain what is wrong please.

Thanks
sudo apt-get install git-core

and....? That really wasn't worth your time replying as it means nothing to me or anyone else looking for an answer.

Is that what is wrong? Why? How? What is correct?
Oh, I didn't read the first line.
Check if /usr/bin/git exists and that /usr/bin is in the PATH environment variable.
make sure you run

sudo apt-get update

before

sudo apt-get install git-core

cheers

That did the trick.

Linux = strange.

Thanks
