For quite a while now, I’ve heard good things about the Ruby Version Manager (if only I knew about it before I installed Ruby 1.9 from source and screwed up rubygems). So I decided to install this application, but to my surprise in reading the documentation, the official install is only made via cloning the latest rvm github repository.

sudo apt-get install git git-core git-doc git-svn
mkdir Git_Repos/rvm
cd Git_Repos/rvm
git config --global user.name "Alpha01"
git config --global user.email "[email protected]"
git config --global core.editor /usr/bin/vim
git init
bash < <(curl -s https://rvm.beginrescueend.com/install/rvm)
Congratz, I just installed rvm and cloned my very first git repository.
