This has been probably been asked many times before but auntie google
can't find it if so.

I've just updated my git clone of org-mode to its version
'409913b253de2de1b49f9468a4b77b9292e090c4' from 'ORIG_HEAD' and I've
done
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
M-x org-version
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

which now shows

╭────
│Org-mode version 8.2.6 (release_8.2.6-1 @ /usr/local/share/emacs/24.3.93/lisp/org/)
╰────

How do I drop the debian version and stick with the git version please?

I have this as part of my init file.
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
;;; -*- emacs-lisp-mode -*- --- init file
;;; mine from 27-11-13. Heavily influenced by http://www.aaronbedra.com/emacs.d/
;; Show errors in this file:
(setq debug-on-error t
debug-on-signal nil
debug-on-quit nil)

(setq load-path (cons "/home/boudiccas/.emacs.d/lisp" load-path))
(add-to-list 'load-path "/home/boudiccas/git/org-mode/lisp" load-path) (require 'org-install)
(add-to-list 'load-path "/home/boudiccas/git/org-mode/contrib/lisp" load-path)
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Thanks
Sharon.

It has been asked many times. :)

I have pretty much what you have:

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
  (add-to-list 'load-path "~/git/org-mode/lisp")
  (add-to-list 'load-path "~/git/org-mode/contrib/lisp/")
  (require 'org)
#+end_src

and this works fine.  These lines come before anything that may
reference org in any way, mind you.

Thanks for this Eric.

I've now set up my init with your little stanza in, evaluated it,
restarted org-mode and did version on it. And its showing -

╭────
│Org-mode version 8.2.7c (release_8.2.7c-53-g409913 @ /home/boudiccas/git/org-mode/lisp/)
╰────

Hooray! Result! Thanks :)

You shouldn't need this unless you really have some stuff in there
that's just for you.  I'd suggest moving those things to site-lisp if
possible (which is already in load-path and therefore doesn't need any
gymnastics).

Drop this, too.  Do add

(require 'org-loaddefs)

instead since at least the standard Debian Emacs is too old to work
without it.

I'm sorry Achim, but what do you mean by that?

'site-lisp'? Where’s that then please? Its not in the org-mode that
comes with the git output, and I don't have one in my bog-standard emacs
in my /home directory at ~/.emacs.d/

Giving that command on the command line.

On a stock Debian system you'd usually find it in
/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp and the above invocation would install into
subdirectory org.

Pretty much what Eric and Achim have already siad.

I run make update2 each morning; the most recent org mode is in my 
/home/directory/.elisp

and my .emacs.d/init.el loads it via

	(add-to-list 'load-path "/home/directory/.elisp/org-mode/lisp")
   	(add-to-list 'load-path "/home/directory/.elisp/org-mode/contrib/lisp/")

Essentially I copied it from section 1.2 of the manual.
