Git For El Capitan
What is this? La Capitaine is an icon pack — designed to integrate with most desktop environments. The set of icons takes inspiration from the latest iterations of macOS and Google's Material Design through the use of visually pleasing gradients, shadowing, and simple icon geometry. 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. ##Install Git. Enter the following command: brew install git; After installation, check the installed version of Homebrew: git -version; Expected output: git version 2.6.0; Configure username and email address for all Git Repositories: git config -global user.name 'your name' git config. May 15, 2020 The El Capitan installer is downloaded to the /Applications folder, with the file name Install OS X El Capitan. If you have already installed El Capitan and wish to now create a bootable installer, you can force the Mac App Store to re-download the installer. 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.
