Hi Dror, I track the latest git code at least weekly. I skip the compile and make install steps completely and run the code uncompiled from the git repository directly. I just update the code and M-x org-reload (or restart Emacs) and I'm done. I put the directory that org-mode is loaded from early in my load path so that the git version is loaded instead of whatever out-of-date version the system has. Unless you need to provide the updated org-mode to other users there's no need to install it system wide - it's just another step that can trip you up. Regards, Bernt
