For easy installation, use the
2013-06-26 23:21:19 +00:00
[beta release of git-annex.app](https://downloads.kitenet.net/git-annex/OSX/current/).
2012-09-27 22:52:42 +00:00
2012-12-17 16:59:18 +00:00
Be sure to select the build matching your version of OSX.
2013-03-19 18:12:47 +00:00
If you want to run the [[git-annex_assistant|/assistant]], just
install the app, look for the icon, and start it up.
2013-03-20 18:01:05 +00:00
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.

This is still a work in progress. See [[/bugs/OSX_app_issues]] for problem
reports.

The version provided by Macports is too old to work with current versions of git-annex.
Then execute
