With <span class="productname">Git</span> you will make a copy of the entire code repository
on your local machine, so you will have access to all history and branches
offline. This is the fastest and most flexible way to develop or test
patches.
</p><div class="procedure" id="id-1.11.10.5.3"><p class="title"><strong>Git</strong></p><ol class="procedure" type="1"><li class="step"><p>
You will need an installed version of <span class="productname">Git</span>, which you can
get from <a class="ulink" href="https://git-scm.com" target="_top">https://git-scm.com</a>. Many systems already
have a recent version of <span class="application">Git</span> installed by default, or
available in their package distribution system.
</p></li><li class="step"><p>
To begin using the Git repository, make a clone of the official mirror:
</p><pre class="programlisting">
git clone https://git.postgresql.org/git/postgresql.git
</pre><p>
This will copy the full repository to your local machine, so it may take
a while to complete, especially if you have a slow Internet connection.
The files will be placed in a new subdirectory <code class="filename">postgresql</code> of
your current directory.
</p><p>
The Git mirror can also be reached via the Git protocol. Just change the URL
prefix to <code class="literal">git</code>, as in:
</p><pre class="programlisting">
git clone git://git.postgresql.org/git/postgresql.git
</pre><p>
</p></li><li class="step"><p>
Whenever you want to get the latest updates in the system, <code class="command">cd</code>
into the repository, and run:
</p><pre class="programlisting">
git fetch
</pre><p>
</p></li></ol></div><p>
<span class="productname">Git</span> can do a lot more things than just fetch the source. For
more information, consult the <span class="productname">Git</span> man pages, or see the
website at <a class="ulink" href="https://git-scm.com" target="_top">https://git-scm.com</a>.
