You can learn more about Git here:

http://wiki.koha.org/doku.php?id=en:development:git_usage

Once you have a Git repository, you can run the standard:

perl Makefile.PL
make
make install

When you run Make install it will ask you what type of installation,
choose 'dev' instead of 'standard. You will then be able to link
the installation to your Git repository and store the configuration
files in a separate directory, allowing you to upgrade your Koha
system by updating the Git repository.

Note that this setup is not recommended for production and is
most useful for supporting a rapid development cycle (hence
it's called 'dev').

Hope that clarifies.
