== Install git == |
|||
It's an insult in British English, but git is also an awesome version control tool. Here's how you install it: |
|||
Go to [http://code.google.com/p/git-osx-installer/downloads/list?can=3&q=&sort=-uploaded&colspec=Filename+Summary+Uploaded+Size+DownloadCount this page on google code] and download the latest file ending in "-x86_64-leopard.dmg" (1.7.2.3 as of this writing). Once it's downloaded, double click to open. You'll see something like this: |
|||
<center> |
|||

|||

|||
Double-click the .pkg file to install. Once that's done, close all your open Terminal windows, and open a new one. Cut and paste the following into the new Terminal window: |
|||
<pre> |
|||
git --version |
|||
</pre> |
|||
It should respond with something like "git version 1.7.2.3". |
|||
==== Tell git who you are ==== |
|||
* Open up a new Terminal window. |
|||
* <code>git config --global user.name "''Your Actual Name''"</code> |
|||
* <code>git config --global user.email "''Your Actual Email''"</code> |
|||
If this doesn't produce an error, congratulations! You have a successful install of git and you can move on to the next section. |
|||
Test it: |
|||
git config --global user.name |
|||
git config --global user.email |
