### Add PUIAS Computational repository
The [PUIAS Computational][PUIAS] repository is a part of [PUIAS/Springdale Linux][SDL],
a custom Red Hat® distribution maintained by [Princeton University][PU] and the
[Institute for Advanced Study][IAS]. We take advantage of the PUIAS
Computational repository to obtain a git v1.8.x package since the base CentOS
repositories only provide v1.7.1 which is not compatible with GitLab.
Install the PUIAS Computational repository rpm
sudo rpm -Uvh http://puias.math.ias.edu/data/puias/6/x86_64/os/Packages/springdale-computational-6-2.sdl6.10.noarch.rpmo

### Git
GitLab will only work correctly with git version 1.8.x or newer. The problem is
that the available rpms for CentOS stop at git 1.7.1 which is too old for GitLab.
In order to update, you have to build git from source as it is not yet in any repository:
su -
cd /tmp
yum -y install git perl-ExtUtils-MakeMaker
git clone git://github.com/git/git.git
cd /tmp/git/
git checkout v1.8.3.4
autoconf
./configure --prefix=/usr/local
make && make install
rm -rf /tmp/git/
yum erase git
Logout and login again for the `$PATH` to take effect. Check that git is properly
installed with:
which git
# /usr/local/bin/git
git --version
# git version 1.8.3.4
