Homebrew git reporting older version I have just upgraded git. It's now a symlink to the Cellared most recent version.

$ ls -l `which git`
/usr/local/bin/git -&gt; ../Cellar/git/2.14.1/bin/git


However

$git --version
git version 2.11.0 (Apple Git-81)


Do I have two different versions installed at once? How can I clean up the remnants of the Apple Git-81 version?
In ~/.bash_profile you should amend PATH to prefer binaries supplied by homebrew. You can do this with the line:

export PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH


After changing .bash_profile you will need to open a new Terminal.app window to see the change take place. Alternatively, you can source ~/.bash_profile to load in the profile into the current session.
