After years of running MythTV installed from packages I now have a local build from the 0.25.2 tarballs, but I'm not clear of the best way to keep it updated, if that seems a good thing to do.<br>
<br>
The ATrpms packages use gitfixes.patch files; I don't know how these are created. I haven't used git and don't know what resources it would need at my end. Would I do better to do a git clone instead? Can I rebuild small parts of the system if I want to try some out-of-tree patch? How?<br>

I expect these questions are covered somewhere in the wiki, but I haven't found it easy to find a concise and up-to-date set of recommendations. Any suggestions?<br>
