Error Installing Homebrew - Brew Command Not Found

Question

I\'ve spent the bulk of my Friday trying to get the latest version of Ruby installed on my new MacBook Air (w/ Mountain Lion installed).

I have all the latest versio

Answer 1

This was just happening to me, but none of the suggestions above worked. I changed directories ("cd ~/tmp") and suddenly the command

ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.github.com/Homebrew/homebrew/go/install)"

worked for me. Prior to changing directories I had been in a directory that is a Git repository. Perhaps that was interfering with the ruby and Git commands in the Brew install script.
