Optional. If you want to try different branches and/or easily update the source when changes are made, install git and clone the source. For random just-want-to-see-what's-going-on-in-development builds, download a tarbal from github.

The [git http://git-scm.com/] project has a downloadable build of git.
15+
Make sure to get the package matching your processor (x86_64 most likely, only the first Intel Macs need the i386 package).
16+
17+
Once downloaded open the disk image and run the installer.

__PPC/source note__
20+
21+
The git site does not offer PPC builds. If you need a PPC build, or you just want
22+
a little more control over the installation, you need to compile it yourself.
23+
24+
Download the source from http://git-scm.com/. Unzip it, and in a Terminal cd to the source folder, then:
25+
26+
```
27+
make prefix=/usr/local
28+
sudo make prefix=/usr/local install
29+
```
30+
31+
If you don't need any of the extras, Perl, Python or TclTk (GUI), you can disable them before running make with:
32+
33+
```
34+
export NO_PERL=
35+
export NO_TCLTK=
36+
export NO_PYTHON=
37+
```

== Get QGIS from git ==
40+
41+
You can download a development tarball (no git installation needed) from:
42+
43+
http://github.com/qgis/Quantum-GIS
44+
45+
This defaults to the current master, but you can select any other branch or tag as desired.
46+
47+
Or for more long-term testing of development sources: clone the sources with git (in an appropriate location on your computer):
48+
49+
```
50+
git clone git://github.com/qgis/Quantum-GIS.git
51+
```
52+
53+
This automatically activates the master. To switch to another branch:
54+
55+
```
56+
git checkout [branchname]
57+
```
