I am trying to install git on an OpenVZ container using the CentOs 6.3 precreated template. When I try the command line
yum install git
I get the message:
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror

* extras: www.cubiculestudio.com

Setting up Install Process
No package git available.
Error: Nothing to do
As I understand, the git package should be in the centos6 base repository: http://pkgs.org/centos-6-rhel-6/centos-rhel-x86_64/git-1.7.1-2.el6_0.1.x86_64.rpm.html
But it doesn't find it, I even have the EPEL and RPMForge repo enabled, but still can't find the git package.
yum repolist

The weirdest thing is that my OpenVZ server is running on CentOs 6.3 and I was able to install git without any issue.
Can you help me understanding why it doesn't find the package?
Thank you in advance.
