Upgraded to Git 1.7.2 on MacBook Pro – Pro Git Tips

I saw a nice tweet from GitHub this morning about some really nice pro git tips, and at the top of the page, it points out that some of these features require git 1.7.2. That got me thinking about what version I was on because I know I updated a little while ago. So again, I did the magic:

  $ git --version
  git version 1.7.0.3

and it looked like I needed to spend a few minutes getting up to date.

I'm a fan of the Mac OS X Git installer on Google Code as it's a clean package to download and get installed.

Took only a few minutes and now:

  $ git --version
  git version 1.7.2

Perfect!

I'll need to get this installed on my other boxes in my office tonight.
