  <p>Now I wanted to import this project into my Intellij IDEA. So I did import project and selected the project root. Each time I open the project it gives me following error</p>
  
  <pre><code>6:03:17 PM Unsupported Git version
             The configured version of Git is not supported: 1.7.1.0.
             The minimal supported version is 1.7.1.1. Please update.

  <p>I have been using command line git for quite some time now. It works fine even with Eclipse ADT which I use for my android project. So what is the issue here?</p>
  
  <p>Do I need to change any setting in Intellij IDEA to use it with lower git version? Or if I update git will it affect other got projects? And also how do I update present git with command line?(Maybe anything similar to yum update).</p>
  
  <p>I would really prefer a workaround without changing the git version. Any suggestions are appreciated though.</p>
  
  <p>Also my git version is indeed 1.7.1</p>
  
  <pre><code>[aniket@localhost hornetMq]$ git version
  git version 1.7.1
  </code></pre>
