But does it changes the bash_profile in user’s home directory ?
what does command “source /etc/bashrc” exactly does. ?

Also, in case if we need to revert the installed git, then what the procedure for it ?.

I was looking for a way how to bring latest Git to REHL 6 and there’s another, much easier way. Use Rackspace’s IUS repositories, they have rpms for latest Git version.

Regards,
P.
