If you have heard of Git Flow, and you use Ubunut Linux, then you can install it using the following instructions.

Download the latest .deb package file from https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/precise/i386/git-flow/, and then install it thus ...

wget -P ~/Downloads http://launchpadlibrarian.net/84618376/git-flow_0.4.1-2_all.deb
 sudo dpkg -i ~/Downloads/git-flow_0.4.1-2_all.deb

If you haven't heard of Git Flow, then read all about it at http://nvie.com/posts/a-successful-git-branching-model/. If you haven't heard of Git, then you're either not a developer (in that case, ignore it), or you need to Google it.
