Problems installing Git with Homebrew [duplicate]

Problems Upgrading Git with Homebrew

I'm very close here -- I think I just need to create a symbolic link, but I'm not sure how (and why this is need). I'm on OSX Lion btw.

I've downloaded and installed git using this command.

brew install git 

the response is

git-1.7.12 already installed, it's just not linked 

How do I do this?

when I run

which git >/usr/bin/git 

when I run

git --version >git version 1.7.4.4 

My paths are fine

export PATH="/usr/local/bin:$PATH" 

Again -- all I really need to know is how to set up the sym link. Thanks!

All you should need to do is:

brew link git
