Doing it manually allowed the package to be installed, thanks as always Peter! That did it, guess dpkg didn’t like having to uninstall the default version.

I always worked with the ubuntu-package of git, which is good enough for me. But now I've upgraded to 12.04 (beta2) and recogniced that the bash-completion doesn't work within the graphical terminal. Since I'm working productive with git this is kind of annoying, so I tried your build of the newest git-version. Unfortunatly I've got the same problem with it. Do you have a hint how to fix it and make my git working allright again? That would be wonderful... Thanks for your work.

Have it running on our local Lucid server with all development being pushed through gitolite to it. Thanks again for adding Lucid back to your builds!

A nice surprise, thanks for building this version for Lucid Peter we really appreciate it. When Ubuntu 12.04 LTS is released we'll look at upgrading but it's nice to have git for the last LTS release still available, thanks to you I just checked for updates on my server and noticed git was available!

As I'm writing this the 64bit version is building, and the ETA for the i386 build to start is 5 hours, so be patient, cross your fingers, install it and let me know it it worked :) OK two people asked, so what can I do :)
