This is an installer package
for git
revision
control system for Mac OS X. I created this because I needed to
use git
on a number of different Macs, and didn't
want to compile it each time or use something like MacPorts.
This first one is compiled for Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) or
later; this version should properly
support git-http-push
:
git-1.6.1.pkg (52M) (January 23, 2009)
To install, download the zip file and extract it, and open the file (it will open in Installer); follow the normal procedure to install the package.
Once installed, the programs will be
in /usr/local/bin
and the manual pages will be
in /usr/local/man
. To use git, you'll need to
add /usr/local/bin
to the PATH
environment variable, usually by placing this:
export
PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin
into the file ~/.bashrc
.
Also available is this package that will also work on Mac OS X
10.4 (Tiger). This does not
support git-http-push
, because the
libraries git
needs for that command are not
up-to-date enough on Mac OS X 10.4.
If you have any problems or questions with these packages, you
can email me at casey.s.marshall
at Google's free email
service.
Happy hacking.
