Today I figured it was time that I bit the bullet and upgraded my instillation of Growl from 1.2.2 to the latest - 2.0.1. I resisted upgrading before because 1.2.2 was the last free compiled version available. I am way too cheap to pay for an Open Source project but I never had the ambition to build it. Hello Mr. Ambition!
Building Growl...how hard can it be? The Growl developers even have a little write up here on how to do it. Let's find out.
Requirements
The official build notes list the following requirements:
- OS X Lion - 10.8
- Xcode
- A tool to pull down a clone of the repo, the mercurial client
- A working Git client
- A working subversion client
How many different version control systems does one project need? I'm running OS X Lion 10.7.5 so it looks like I meet all the requirements. No version of Xcode is recommended so I'm going with the latest that I have - 4.6 (4H127).
