Isn't that what git is for? Whenever you run into a problem with the
HEAD, you can do `git reset --hard <commit_that_works>' and you should
be back to a working org-mode install.

Something is definitely wrong, "Org-mode version 7.4
(release_7.4.84.gf7bca.dirty)" this is my output of `org-version'.

This is how I do it,

git pull && make cleanall && make all && make install-info

(add-to-list 'load-path (expand-file-name "~/build/org-mode/lisp"))
(add-to-list 'load-path (expand-file-name "~/build/org-mode/contrib"))

(require 'org-install)
