Updating Run-in-place

My machine has linuxcnc 2.9.0-pre0 that I installed back in januaryish that I compiled from these instructions: linuxcnc.org/docs/devel/html/code/building-linuxcnc.html

Can anyone give me the commands needed to update this installation?

(my internet connection here is limited to wifi hotspot)

[EDIT]
So I cd'ed into the ~/linuxcnc-dev/ directory and ran
> git pull
> cd ./src
> ./autogen.sh
> ./configure --with-realtime=uspace
> make
> sudo make setuid

Seems to have run fine. Is that correct? The linuxcnc splash screen still says v2.9.0-pre0 though

Can anyone tell me if the above is all that's required, `git pull` ?

Since the terminal still reports the same 2.9.0-pre0 I don't know how to tell if I'm actually running the latest updates.

Yes
There is a couple of things you can do.
1: Checkout the output after you do "git pull"
2: Read the changelog in the debian folder

Try this
Then in Git, click on the code tab and you should see the latest commit numbers and compare
github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc

The last one also shows on the main gits screen

git log -1 will show the commit date, that would give you a pretty good idea
