Updated Git to 1.7.4.1 on My MacBook Pro

This afternoon I realized that git on my Mac Mini at home had the 64-bit version of git installed from the Mac OS X git installer, and that was a big mistake as it's a simple Core Duo CPU which can only run in 32-bit more on Snow Leopard. I had the 64-bit version for my MacBook Pro, and my iMac, but forgot to get the 32-bit version for the Mac Mini. Bummer.

Clearly, it'd be great if they had a universal build so I didn't have to deal with this, but hey... they build it and I can just keep things straight. My bad. Plain and simple. So I got the most recent builds for x86_64 and i386, and put the 64-bit package on my MacBook Pro, and tonight I'll install the 32-bit version on my Mac Mini. There. It'll work.

It's nice to see:

  $ git --version
  git version 1.7.4.1

Nice. Love it when things "just work".

[3/18] UPDATE: this morning I installed the latest updates on my Mac Mini (i386) and on my iMac (x86_64) so all boxes are up to date and working fine.
