I bought a new MacBook Pro and installed the applications list below in order. On my old MacBook, also running OS X 10.6.6, I didn't have /usr/bin/git, however, on the new MacBook Pro, I do. The only differences that I can think of between the two systems are:
Homebrew installed git 1.7.4.1 into /usr/local/Cellar/git and symlinked it into /usr/local/bin. This leads me to believe that Xcode 4 installed git 1.7.3.4 into /usr/bin. Can anyone confirm or deny this?
If Xcode 4 didn't install git 1.7.3.4 into /usr/bin, any thoughts what program did?
ruby -e "$(curl -fsSLk https://gist.github.com/raw/323731/install_homebrew.rb)" brew install git brew install macvim I ran pkgutil --file-info /usr/bin/git and the following info was displayed. This appears to incriminate Xcode 4.
volume: / path: /usr/bin/git pkgid: com.apple.pkg.GitLeo pkg-version: 4.0.0.9000000000.1.1248867338 install-time: 1300459157 uid: 0 gid: 0 mode: 755 By default, the path /usr/local/bin is after /usr/bin (see the file /etc/paths). This means that git 1.7.3.4 is used instead of 1.7.4.1 that Homebrew installed.

Xcode will create your new project along with a new Git repository. All source control systems, including Git, store their data into a repository so that they can manage your project versions and keep track of changes throughout the development cycle.
Git can be installed on the most common operating systems like Windows, Mac, and Linux. In fact, Git comes installed by default on most Mac and Linux machines!
Apple ships a binary package of Git with Xcode.
Yes, it does. I just finished the Xcode 4 install. git was previously installed to /usr/local/git.
I am new to OS X, and can only suggest swapping the order of those directories in /etc/paths.
Not sure what else would/might work.
