It will also be necessary if you want to add your own tracks to your mirror (see next section). Install Git software version 1.6.2.2 or later. See the Git Community Handbook installation (<https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Getting-Started-Installing-Git>) and setup (<https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Getting-Started-First-Time-Git-Setup>) instructions, as well as our Installing Git (<http://genomewiki.ucsc.edu/index.php/Installing_git>) Genomewiki page. Start an initial Git local repository: - git clone git://genome-source.soe.ucsc.edu/kent.git + git clone https://github.com/ucscGenomeBrowser/kent.git or, if a firewall prevents git daemon port 9418, use: - git clone http://genome-source.soe.ucsc.edu/kent.git + git clone https://github.com/ucscGenomeBrowser/kent.git The kent source tree will be imported to the current working directory in a directory named ./kent/. Track the beta branch at UCSC repository: Most users want to use the beta branch, which has tested, released versions of the browser. To create a beta tracking branch: cd kent git checkout -t -b beta origin/beta The -b creates a local branch with name "beta", and checks it out. The -t makes it a tracking branch, so that 'git pull' brings in updates from origin/beta, the "real" beta branch in our public central read-only repository. To get the latest UCSC release, from anywhere within the kent source tree:
