I have a user account on a Linux server (x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu, according to this). It apparently has no package managers in the $PATH (yum, apt-get, pkg, pkg-add, emerge, pacman), and it does not have cc.

I would like to install git into ~/bin. It's not necessary that I do so, but it sure would make my life a lot easier. However, all of the instructions I've found online with respect to installing git have to do with either:

1. using a package manager (which I don't seem to have access to)
2. installing from source (which I can't, because I don't have cc)

Linux is not my native OS, so I'm kind of at a loss as to how to proceed. What do I need to do? Is there a place where I can download pre-compiled binaries and see if any of them work?

(edit by the way, this is a shared hosting server. so the tech support people were just following scripts when I tried to ask them for advice. they also wanted to upsell me to their VPS package, which I don't need or want)
