Hello, I am using the pre-flashed Qualcomm Linux 1.3 on a Rubik Pi 3 board. I was wondering how I would go about installing git as Qualcomm Linux does not come with a package manager.

Running the command: git --version
Results in: sh: git: command not found

Dear customer,
You can install Git using the following command:
sudo apt-get install git-core
To check the Git version:
git --version

Really? Qualcomm Linux does not have a package manager, afaik.

Dear customer,
May I inquire whether you intend to install Git on your PC or on the development board?

I planned to install git on the development board (running Qualcomm Linux) so I could create a project and put it on GitHub.

Since Qualcomm Linux does not have a package manager I could not find an easy way to install git so I ended up flashing Ubuntu on the board instead so I can use apt, etc.

For Qualcomm Linux, would it still be possible to install git?

Dear customer,
You may add IMAGE_INSTALL:append = " git" to the following files.

After making the modification, compile the Yocto project using the command ./rubikpi_build.sh -a .
