cd /path/to/your/wiki/extensions
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/xeyownt/mwfentt FenTT
cd FenTT
make install             # For MW 1.25 or above
make install-1.24        # For MW 1.24 or older

make install / make install-1.24 will delete all files that are not necessary for the extension to run, and add the following line at the end of LocalSettings.php:

// For MW 1.25 or above:
wfLoadExtension( 'FenTT' );
// For MW 1.24 or older:
require_once "$IP/extensions/FenTT/FenTT.php";

Done! Navigate to Special:Version on your wiki to verify that the extension is successfully installed.
