Required software install snippets

python-gitlab

yum install python-setuptools
git clone https://github.com/Itxaka/python-gitlab.git
cd python-gitlab
git checkout 2ec0ba588a1cce00bb1fde74bb7403cc9ab1ff5e
python setup.py

You can find the source to git at the git-core project. For instructions on other platforms see the Getting Started - Installing Git section of the git book.

yum install perl-ExtUtils-MakeMaker zlib zlib-devel openssh libcurl libcurl-devel expat expat-devel gettext gettext-devel
cd /usr/local/src/
git clone https://code.google.com/p/git-core/
cd git-core/
git tag
git checkout v1.8.4
make configure
./configure --prefix=/usr/local
make
make install

Your git should now be located in /usr/local/bin/git. You should edit /etc/profile and place /usr/local/bin at the beginning of your $PATH.
