## git-annex.app

[[!img /assistant/osx-app.png align=right link=/assistant]]
For easy installation, use the prebuilt app bundle.

* 10.9 Mavericks: [git-annex.dmg.bz2](https://downloads.kitenet.net/git-annex/OSX/current/10.9_Mavericks/git-annex.dmg.bz2)
* 10.8.2 Mountain Lion: [git-annex.dmg.bz2](https://downloads.kitenet.net/git-annex/OSX/current/10.8.2_Mountain_Lion/git-annex.dmg.bz2) **warning: not being updated any longer**
* 10.7.5 Lion: [git-annex.dmg.bz2](https://downloads.kitenet.net/git-annex/OSX/current/10.7.5_Lion/git-annex.dmg.bz2)

To run the [[git-annex_assistant|/assistant]], just
install the app, look for the icon, and start it up. 

To use git-annex at the command line, you can add
`git-annex.app/Contents/MacOS` to your `PATH`

Alternatively, from the command line you can run
`git-annex.app/Contents/MacOS/runshell`, which makes your shell use all the
programs bundled inside the app, including not just git-annex, but git, and
several more. Handy if you don't otherwise have git installed.

## autobuilds

[Jimmy Tang](http://www.sgenomics.org/~jtang/) autobuilds
the app for OSX Lion.

* [autobuild of git-annex.dmg.bz2](http://www.sgenomics.org/~jtang/gitbuilder-git-annex-x00-x86_64-apple-darwin10.8.0-binary/ref/master/git-annex.dmg.bz2) ([build logs](http://www.sgenomics.org/~jtang/gitbuilder-git-annex-x00-x86_64-apple-darwin10.8.0-binary/))
  * [past builds](http://www.sgenomics.org/~jtang/gitbuilder-git-annex-x00-x86_64-apple-darwin10.8.0-binary/sha1/) -- directories are named from the commitid's

[[Joey]] autobuilds the app for Mavericks.

* [autobuild of git-annex.dmg.bz2](https://downloads.kitenet.net/git-annex/autobuild/x86_64-apple-mavericks/git-annex.dmg.bz2) ([build logs](https://downloads.kitenet.net/git-annex/autobuild/x86_64-apple-mavericks/))

## using Brew

<pre>
brew update
brew install haskell-platform git ossp-uuid md5sha1sum coreutils libgsasl gnutls libidn libgsasl pkg-config libxml2
brew link libxml2 --force
cabal update
mkdir $HOME/bin
PATH=$HOME/bin:$PATH
PATH=$HOME/.cabal/bin:$PATH
cabal install c2hs --bindir=$HOME/bin
cabal install gnuidn
cabal install git-annex --bindir=$HOME/bin
</pre>

## using MacPorts

Install the Haskell Platform from [[http://hackage.haskell.org/platform/mac.html]].
The version provided by Macports is too old to work with current versions of git-annex.
Then execute

<pre>
sudo port install git-core ossp-uuid md5sha1sum coreutils gnutls libxml2 libgsasl pkgconfig
sudo cabal update
PATH=$HOME/bin:$PATH
cabal install c2hs git-annex --bindir=$HOME/bin
</pre>

## PATH setup

Do not forget to add to your PATH variable your ~/bin folder. In your .bashrc, for example:
<pre>
PATH=$HOME/bin:$PATH
</pre>
