If you have used Git to fetch the source, you should be able to update to the most recent version of Emacs using a "git pull" or "git checkout emacs-29" (or whatever other branch, tag, commit). If you have installed it from a tarball, you will need to download a new release. This link should redirect you to a close-by FTP mirror:=20 http://ftpmirror.gnu.org/emacs/emacs/emacs-29.1.tar.xz The installation procedure should be similar or even analogous to the installation for Emacs 28, with the possible exception of additional ./configure flags that you might be interested in, which have been added in Emacs 29. > https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/emacs.git/tree/INSTALL > > Sorry if the question is silly or my terminology is not correct =E2=80=93= I'm quite unfamiliar with compilation and versioning. > > Cheers, > Luca
