Installing RVM:
  1. Installing RVM is as easy as:
    $ bash -s stable < <(curl -s https://raw.github.com/wayneeseguin/rvm/master/binscripts/rvm-installer)
  2. Add the following to your '.bash_profile':
    # RUBY / RVM / SproutCore stuff
    export RUBY_VERSION=ruby-1.9.2-head
    export GEM_PATH=$HOME/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-head
    source "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm"  # This loads RVM into a shell session.
    # It's best to open a new shell at this point so that your new variables are applied.
  3. Instruct RVM to use Ruby 1.9.2:
    $ rvm install ruby-1.9.2-head
    $ rvm use ruby-1.9.2-head

Installing SproutCore:
  1. Get the “abbot” source:
    $ git https://github.com/seapine/abbot.git
  2. Create a “sproutcore” directory within the abbot frameworks:
    $ mkdir -p abbot/lib/frameworks/sproutcore
  3. Clone the master branch of sproutcore into the above created directory:
    $ cd abbot/lib/frameworks && git clone https://github.com/sproutcore/sproutcore.git && cd ../../
  4. Build the sproutcore gemspec:
    $ rvm 1.9.2-head do gem build sproutcore.gemspec
  5. Install the newly built sproutcore gem:
    $ rvm 1.9.2-head do gem install sproutcore-1.*.gem
  6. SproutCore should now be installed. Lastly you'll want to add it's bin directory to your path:
    $ PATH=$PATH:$HOME/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-head/bin
