Installing rails plugins from github requires git in the system? OS is linux. Is it possible to install plugin without git installation in the local system.

  • btw: I love installing plugins from github and if you'll use more than just a handful plugins it's sure not a bad idea to install git as well. It makes things easier! ;) – xijo Sep 12 '09 at 06:29

Sure!

  1. download the plugin from github as *.tar.gz
  2. uncompress and copy it to your vendor/plugins folder
  3. run the install tasks if necassary

Good luck! ;)

OR just install git-core on your linux system :)

If using Ubuntu or Debian


 sudo apt-get install git-core
