## git-annex.app
For easy installation, use the
[beta release of git-annex.app](http://downloads.kitenet.net/git-annex/OSX/current/).
Be sure to select the build matching your version of OSX.
This is still a work in progress. See [[/bugs/OSX_app_issues]] for problem
reports.
## autobuilds
[Jimmy Tang](http://www.sgenomics.org/~jtang/) autobuilds
the app. These autobuilds only work on OSX Lion, not Mountain Lion.
* [autobuild of git-annex.app](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/))

## using Brew
<pre>
sudo brew update
sudo brew install haskell-platform git ossp-uuid md5sha1sum coreutils pcre libgsasl gnutls libidn libgsasl pkg-config libxml2
sudo brew link libxml2
cabal update
PATH=$HOME/bin:$PATH
cabal install c2hs git-annex --bindir=$HOME/bin
</pre>
## using MacPorts
Install the Haskell Platform from [[http://hackage.haskell.org/platform/mac.html]].
The version provided by Macports is too old to work with current versions of git-annex.
Then execute
<pre>
sudo port install git-core ossp-uuid md5sha1sum coreutils pcre
sudo ln -s /opt/local/include/pcre.h /usr/include/pcre.h # This is hack that allows pcre-light to find pcre
sudo cabal update
PATH=$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>
