In the README I am advised to run:

cd ~/.julia/; git clone https://github.com/forio/Curl.jl.git Curl

But then the later install instructions fail:

julia> Pkg.update(); Pkg.add("Curl"); using Curl
Branch devel set up to track remote branch devel from origin.
Already up-to-date.

 in add at pkg.jl:143

The solution was to delete the repo and only run:

julia> Pkg.update(); Pkg.add("Curl"); using Curl

Heh, sorry about that, old install directions. Thanks for posting.
