Adds notes for installing command line tools for Mac OS X 10.8 Mavericks #18

Thanks for this! Mind if I move the links to the supporting-evidence blog posts into a comment? Having them be click-throughs feels distracting to me.

No problem. Yes, go for it. I wasn't overly happy with the format but thought I'd make it as close to what was currently there as possible. Very happy for it to be improved ;-)

I've spoke with a few people that know better than me and they've made a few recommendations.

Use homebrew instead of MacPorts Use rbenv instead of rvm (even recommended on ruby on rails site)

Additionally, Mavericks comes with ruby 2.0.0p247 (2013-06-27 revision 41674) [universal.x86_64-darwin13] – does this mean we don't need to worry about the rvm/rbenv instructions?

If we did need a specific version of ruby then these are roughly the instructions:

  1. Install xcode command line tools xcode-select --install
  2. Install Homebrew ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.github.com/mxcl/homebrew/go/install)"
  3. Install rbenv brew install rbenv
  4. Install ruby-build brew install ruby-build
  5. Install correct ruby version rbenv install 1.9.3
  6. Install sproutcore gem install sproutcore

If we don't need a specific version of ruby then maybe just this:

  1. Install xcode command line tools xcode-select --install
  2. Install sproutcore gem install sproutcore
