Download [[http://​developer.apple.com/​tools/​xcode/​index.html|Xcode]] (make sure that you have checked the option to install the command line tools to get git - if you already have Xcode installed, but git is not installed, go to Xcode > Preferences > Downloads > Command Line Tools > Install). You will also need to have Xcode installed if you need to recompile mgl.
