Installing PW from Github

[antknight]

Currently I use shard hosting with cPanel for all my websites and use Espresso to edit files directly on the server. I think this is a bit old fashioned now, not to mention slow.

Am I wrong in thinking I can install PW directly from Github to my shared hosting and always keep it up to date?

I read this http://processwire.c...app-for-macosx/ but I don't really understand all the new terminology.

I read the installation instructions but got stuck at step 1.

INSTALLATION FROM GIT

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

1. Git clone ProcessWire to the place where you want to install it.

2. Load the location where you installed ProcessWire into your browser.

This will initiate the ProcessWire installer. The installer will guide

you through the rest of the installation.

Help!
