Linux

Installing on Ubuntu or Debian

Users of Debian-based Linuxes testing and unstable can use the apt-get tool to install gitflow from the Debian repository:

$ apt-get install git-flow

For Debian stable, one can either use the git flow installer, or the Debian package from unstable (it works just fine on stable too).

Other Linuxes

Under other Linuxes, the easiest way to install git-flow is using Rick Osborne's excellent git-flow installer, which can be run using the following command:

$ wget --no-check-certificate -q -O - https://github.com/nvie/gitflow/raw/develop/contrib/gitflow-installer.sh | sudo bash
