git 1:2.9.3-1 exists in testing and unstable distributions of Debian. So one option is to update your machine to either testing or unstable. Running testing or unstable is not for the faint of heart. So please read https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debian-faq/ch-choosing.en.html to help you decide whether it is worth it. thanks raju -- Kamaraju S Kusumanchi | http://raju.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Blog
