Setting up Git on the RoboRIO?

[luthwyhn]

So we're trying to play around with a GPS module on our RoboRIO and we need to use Git to set up the GPS unit's library for us... is there some way to... get git? onto the RIO? The package manager build into NI Linux doesn't seem to have it?

Thanks :)

Why not use Git to pull it down onto a local machine and then SCP the files onto the roborio?

There are two ways to do this. First, connect the RIO to the internet and install git. Second, as kiettyyyy suggested, download externally and copy.
