- If you are able to do so, we recommend using git to clone the source repository rather than to use a packaged tar or zip file. This makes the software much easier to update. The Linux command to clone the repository into a directory "mywebsite" would be
- `git clone http://github.com/friendika/friendika.git mywebsite`
+ `git clone https://github.com/friendika/Free-Friendika.git mywebsite`
and then you can pick up the latest changes at any time with
`git pull`
