git
Git, the distributed version control system, in the same packages Debian ships. Built from kernel.org's release tarballs. One release line for Debian 12 and 13, Ubuntu 22.04, 24.04 and 26.04 on amd64 and arm64.

follows every upstream release, minors and majors included. Currently 2.56.0.
Not published yet. The first git release is being built. These commands will work once it lands at deb.freshdeb.com/git; the versions shown are the ones package.yaml will publish.
1Trust the signing key (once per machine)
sudo install -d -m 0755 /etc/apt/keyrings curl -fsSL https://deb.freshdeb.com/freshdeb-archive-keyring.gpg \ | sudo tee /etc/apt/keyrings/freshdeb-archive-keyring.gpg >/dev/null
Fingerprint 3BBD F03A 9C0B F890 F8CA 9510 7595 CC55 468F 3161. How to verify.
2Add the source
sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/freshdeb-git.sources >/dev/null <<EOF
Types: deb
URIs: https://deb.freshdeb.com/git
Suites: $(. /etc/os-release && echo $VERSION_CODENAME)
Components: main
Signed-By: /etc/apt/keyrings/freshdeb-archive-keyring.gpg
EOFWith auto, the shell reads the codename from /etc/os-release on the machine you paste this into.
3Install
sudo apt update && sudo apt install git
apt policy git # expect 2.56.0-1+freshdeb~…Already on the distribution's git? The freshdeb version sorts higher, so apt upgrade moves you over in place. Config and data stay where Debian put them.
Packing list
Every release line of git and the distributions it's built for. Each line is its own APT component and only gets the releases it follows (main: every upstream release, minors and majors included). After upstream end of life it stops building but stays installable. Hatched cells have no build: usually that distribution already ships the same or a newer version itself.
