I have downloaded and installed GIT on my Macbook, but I cannot find it in order to run it. (I am complete beginner with GIT and am using it for an assignment).

I have gone to the terminal and typed "which Git" and get back /usr/local/bin/Git. How do I get here. When I type /usr/local/bin/Git in the terminal it says illegal instruction.

I have gone to Applications in windows, but do not see a Git executable and also checked in Utilities in Applications. The only GIT file I see is the install package on my hard drive, but after I install (which it does perfectly) I cannot find this or run it.

    From where did you download it and what steps did you perform to install it?

If the file system that you use is case-sensitive, you should type all commands as they written: git (no capital G)

Type /usr/local/bin/git

PS in my case FS is not case-sensitive: enter image description here)

  • Many thanks for your help and comment. I upgraded my OS X to El Capitan and this seemed to do the trick.
