If you don’t know what Homebrew is, I’ve talked about it in a previous post where I also included instructions on how to install Homebrew. Updates protect from security vulnerabilities, fix bugs, and provide access to new features. And like other software, its important to keep Git up to date. But if you want to double-check, you can always ask Terminal to show you which version of Git is installed on your computer with the following command: git -version Install Git for Windows Install Git for macOS Install Git for Linux Configure Git on Linux Git isnt yet a default option on computers, so it must be manually installed and configured. Terminal should let you know when the installation is complete. Hit Enter and give Terminal a few minutes to install Git (I think it took maybe a minute or two on my Macbook Pro). If you have Homebrew installed already, all you need to do is open up Terminal and type: brew install git There is, however, a third option: installing Git with Homebrew on the Terminal. Especially since Xcode has a tendency to increase its disk space usage yearly. If your plan is to develop iOS apps, that’s fine, but if you’re not planning to really use Xcode much, it’s just a waste of space.
The problem I have with Xcode is that it takes up a lot of space on your computer. Which is the primary tool to use if you want to develop apps for iOS. But this is probably the most tedious version.Īnother option for Mac is to install Git via Xcode.
And downloading and installing the latest version from there. The most obvious one is to go to the Git website. There are several ways to install Git on Mac. When you learn to code, you’ll probably also want to learn and install Git for version control.
