'repo init' fails on MAC OS

[rt]

I am using MAC OS 10.6 (snow leopard). As per the posted documentation
(http://source.android.com/source/download.html) building the code is
not supported as of yet. For the moment, I am trying to get the source
to browse it. 'repo' was successfully installed in ~/bin, but 'repo'
init fails, see below. What am I missing? Do I need to install Git as
well just to view the code, if so where are the instructions for doing
it on a MAC. Any other pointers for the below error are appreciated.

Thanks,
rt.


bash-3.2$ chmod a+x ~/bin/
repo
bash-3.2$ repo init -u git://android.git.kernel.org/platform/manifest.git

It sounds like you don't have git installed.
