Moving to 8 isn't an option. This is a production server out in the field.

I was successful ONCE with a repository, but I can't get to it anymore. The mirror appears to be down.

I get compilation errors trying to build it from the source.

Here's the one that actually worked, and I have found this rpm somewhere else, but it doesn't have git in it like the other with the same name.
wget http://epel.mirror.net.in/epel/5/x86_64/epel-release-5-4.noarch.rpm <-- worked
Now I get no route to host error.

This doesn't have git in it.
yum install https://repo.ius.io/ius-release-el6.rpm https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-6.noarch.rpm

Thanks,
David

I found one that worked!

yum install http://opensource.wandisco.com/centos/6/git/x86_64/wandisco-git-release-6-1.noarch.rpm
yum install git
git --version
git version 2.22.0
