Building coreboot from source (official script)

I get the following;

$ git describe
4.7-12-g83ed1b0
$ git --version
git version 2.7.4

I did run the command outlined in the OP to ensure I had all dependencies required to build coreboot. From this it seems I may be using an older git version. I update my machine daily so it must not have been added into my available repositories yet.

If I update to git version 2.16.1, will this allow me to upgrade coreboot?

EDIT: I went ahead and updated to git version 2.16.2 and was then able to successfully upgrade coreboot. Thanks again kakaroto for your time.
