In order to use git you have to install git on your target-system. See the official git-scm page for more: http://git-scm.com/download/linux

2. Get the files

Connect to a shell on your server and change the directory to /var/www/.

# cd /var/www/

Now you can ‘clone’ the Froxlor.git-repository using the following command. It will store the files into the given target-directory Froxlor (/var/www/froxlor/).

# git clone https://github.com/Froxlor/Froxlor.git froxlor

3. Download dependencies

Froxlor 0.10.x is composer based. In order to use the development version you need to install composer.

# cd /var/www/froxlor

# composer install --no-dev

Alternatively, use the shell-installer

You can also download our shell installer which downloads the tarball, extracts it and sets up the basics as our web-installer would do.

# wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Froxlor/Froxlor-Installer/master/bin/froxlor-install.phar

# php froxlor-install.phar

Enjoy!
