Stack Git installation OS X

Stack Git.

Easily the most useful tool I've ever found while browsing reddit( This session lead on to the most productive night I've ever started from reddit aswell). TLDR: Quilt for Git. Not that I ever used Quilt... Though the merit and productivity potential is blatantly apparent.

Install homebrew

ruby -e "$(curl -fsSLk https://gist.github.com/raw/323731/install_homebrew.rb)"

Install Deps

brew install asciidoc xmlto docbook

Register docbook

sudo docbook-register

Install stgit in $HOME/{bin,lib,share}

git clone git://repo.or.cz/stgit.git
cd stgit
make all doc
make install install-doc

  1. If you can't or don't want to install xCode, homebrew etc. the following also works:

    python setup.py build
    python setup.py install --prefix=$HOME --root=/ --force

    1. I do not have access to any apple devices that I confirm this, seems reasonable though.
