    Install Git 2.17.1 from source on RHEL 7.x

These are the Terminal commands I recently used (July 2017) to install Git 2.17.1 from source on RHEL 7.x. I ran this in a VirtualBox VM after a fresh install from the ISO.
You mileage will vary as the yum packages are updated over time. The yum install line below should include all the dependencies, at least it did for me. Depending upon how often you use yum update you may need to run yum --enablerepo=base clean metadata as su before you run the following commands.
cd ~/Downloads
su
# First remove old system git
yum erase git

These are the Terminal commands I recently used (Feb 2013) to install Git 1.8.1.2 from source on CentOS 6.3. I ran this in a VirtualBox VM after a fresh install from the ISO.
You mileage will vary as the yum packages are updated over time. The yum install line below should include all the dependencies, at least it did for me. Eventually yum install git will include 1.8.x but until then I hope this helps.

If you are not running in a VirtualBox VM, you will need run the following first.
su
yum -y install gcc make
exit
