It’s important to have the bleeding-edge Git installed on all computers 
I use, so I created a bash script to automatically download, install and 
test new versions from the master branch. It’s been maturing now for 
some weeks, and works fine on all computers I use, which is Ubuntu and 
Debian based. It’s built with paranoia in mind to avoid accidents, and 
places each version under its separate directory structure under 
/usr/local by default, but that’s easily configurable.

In case someone else has use for such a script, it’s available from

  git://github.com/sunny256/build-git.git
  http://github.com/sunny256/build-git.git

or

  git://gitorious.org/build-git/build-git.git
  http://git.gitorious.org/build-git/build-git.git

Comments and patches/enhancements welcome.

Regards,
Øyvind
