Setup OS X 10.7 w/ homebrew, oh-my-zsh, rvm, nvm

Setup new Mac with OSX Lion from scratch

These commands are good as of 2011-07-27.

Install Xcode 4

The download/install takes a while so start it first. When it finishes downloading you will still need to run it to complete installation.

Really the nicest choice for a terminal on OSX right now, especially with Lion style full screen support.

ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.github.com/gist/323731)"

Note that Xcode is a pre-req for Homebrew

Set shell to ZSH and install oh-my-zsh

curl -L https://github.com/robbyrussell/oh-my-zsh/raw/master/tools/install.sh | sh

restart iTerm2

SCM

Git

brew install git

http://help.github.com/mac-set-up-git/

Copy over your SSH Keys from your existing machine if you have them and want to carry over your existing SSH configs.

bash < <(curl -s https://rvm.beginrescueend.com/install/rvm)

.zshrc

[[ -s "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm" ]] && . "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm"  # This loads RVM into a shell session.

Start new shell session

Install ruby

rvm install 1.9.2
rvm install 1.8.7
rvm notes

See if there is anything in the rvm notes you need to take action on. As of this writing the compiler needs to be overridden.

gem: --no-ri --no-rdoc

 rvm --default 1.8.7
 rvmsudo gem install bundler
 rvmsudo gem install lunchy
