##Remove key-repeat lag

$ defaults write NSGlobalDomain KeyRepeat -int 0

and reboot

##Install Command Line Tools

$ xcode-select --install

for yosemite download xcode through developer center and run the following

$ xcode-select --switch /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer
$ xcode-select --install

or download directly from the developer center [see: https://developer.apple.com/downloads/index.action]

##Install homebrew

$ ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.github.com/Homebrew/homebrew/go/install)"
$ echo "export PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH" >> ~/.zshrc
$ brew doctor
$ brew update

Homebrew will not support yosemite until XCode 6 is publically released, however in the meantime you can symlink your rubys: Create Directory:

$ sudo mkdir -p /System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/1.8/usr/bin

Symlink 2.0:

$ sudo ln -s /usr/bin/ruby /System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/1.8/usr/bin/ruby

You may have to update the script from such:

...
BREW_SYSTEM=$(uname -s | tr "[:upper:]" "[:lower:]")
if [ "$BREW_SYSTEM" = "darwin" ]
then
    exec "$BREW_LIBRARY_DIRECTORY/brew.rb" "$@"
else
    exec ruby -W0 "$BREW_LIBRARY_DIRECTORY/brew.rb" "$@"
fi

to:

...
#BREW_SYSTEM=$(uname -s | tr "[:upper:]" "[:lower:]")
#if [ "$BREW_SYSTEM" = "darwin" ]
#then
#    exec "$BREW_LIBRARY_DIRECTORY/brew.rb" "$@"
#else
    exec ruby -W0 "$BREW_LIBRARY_DIRECTORY/brew.rb" "$@"
#fi

##Install git

fix for yosemite is documented below
