I am interested to know why you decided to do that.  I have always
just used git from the Ubuntu repository and never knowingly had any
problems.

I checked Git version in my Ubuntu distribution and compared with the last official release.
I found that the gap was high and so I only thought that an update could be a good choice.
An article at lifeonubuntu.com suggests an upgrade, because of incompatibility issues with GitHub.com.
In a askubuntu.com question a user points out about "a security flaw in Git, which was fixed in version 2.2.1.". My Git version was well below 2.2.1.
I hope I made a good decision...
