Setting Up Local Git Repo

Checked git version by entering: git version Was 1.9.3

I downloaded Git 2.2.1 from SourceForge. The uninstall.sh script did not work so I just installed the new git. Entering 'git version' said I was still on 1.9.3. So I entered:

rm /usr/bin/git*

Then launched a new window and 'git version' said 2.2.1.

According to https://help.github.com/articles/caching-your-github-password-in-git/ I already had the osxkeychain credential helper installed.
