FAQ

I have XCode installed (and consequently its bundled git); how do I get my system to use this version instead?

Xcode installs its git to /usr/bin/git; recent versions of OS X (Yosemite and later) ship with stubs in /usr/bin, which take precedence over this git. To overcome, do the following:

sudo mv /usr/bin/git /usr/bin/git-system
sudo ln -sf /usr/local/git/bin/git /usr/bin/git

Note, you will need to restart your shell after so-doing, as most shells (bash) cache command location resolution from PATH.

Which version should I download?

If you are running:

  • 10.6 Snow Leopard: git-*-snow-leopard
  • 10.7 Lion: git-*-snow-leopard
  • 10.8 Mountain Lion: git-*-snow-leopard
  • 10.9 Mavericks: git-*-mavericks
  • 10.10 Yosemite: git-*-mavericks
  • 10.11 Yosemite: git-*-mavericks

The Snow Leopard builds will work on Mavericks and later, but there are issues running git gui.

It doesn't work. Help!

Changes / Recent updates

2015-10-18

Builds have been updated to create symlinks in /usr/local/bin to run git. El Capitan no longer allows modifications to /usr/bin, and /usr/local/bin is preferred over /usr/bin, by default.

The installer installs the uninstall.sh script, which has also been updated to remove the new symlinks created.

The installer no longer uses PackageMaker. Instead, it uses pkgbuild, which is much simpler, and is the supported way of doing packages.

2014-12-21

Mavericks builds have been published to address issues running git gui. Going forward, Snow Leopard and Mavericks builds will be published.

Also, the Makefile has been fixed to enable 32-bit builds of the OS X keychain credential helper. Universal builds have returned, reducing one more decision the user has to make when determining the appropriate download version.

2014-12-20

32-bit builds for Snow Leopard (and later) are back. These were created on a 64-bit installation of Mac OS X Snow Leopard.

2014-12-19 - CVE-2014-9390 Fix, and improved build process.

CVE-2014-9390 security fix

As announced on the git mailing list, git for OS X

The following versions contain the fix:

  • 2.2.1
  • 2.1.4
  • 2.0.5
  • 1.9.5
  • 1.8.5.6

Support for older operating systems restored / apology

64-bit builds for Snow Leopard (and later) have been published. There was an issue with the build script in which the compilation Framework was not being properly specified, and this effectively caused it to be ignored. As a result, the builds were not working on 10.8.x and earlier. I apologize deeply for this error. Further compounding the issue was lack of feedback channels, and the negative reviews were not emailed to me. This was my fault as I did not set up adequate instructions for how to ask for help. I've updated the project home page with a link to the GitHub issue tracker, and have done various cleanup to reduce clutter remaining since the transition from Google Code.

Improved build process

The build process has been greatly improved; the cumbersome script has been replaced with a more declarative Makefile. A check has been added to assert that the 32-bit package actually contain 32-bit executables.
