Add setup instructions for installing git. #92

At least on Mac OS 10.8, git is not installed by default. The student needs to install it as part of setup. Probably the easiest path to done is downloading from git-scm.org.

Scratch my previous advice to download rom git-scm.org. For some reason the 1.9.3 download was broken. (It threw dynamic linker errors when executed.)

Homebrew may be the best option for Mac at this time.

While using a package manager (either Homebrew or MacPorts) is the Right Thing™, it does increase the scope of the task. I favour linking to git-scm.com as suggested originally. Also, 2.0.0 is now available, so the issue mentioned above with the 1.9.3 release (hopefully) does not apply.

I agree that linking to git-scm.com is the way to go here.
