Mac OS X 10.11 El Capitan

Custom recipe to get OS X 10.11 El Capitan running from scratch, setup applications and developer environment. This is very similar (and currently mostly the same) as my 10.10 Yosemite setup recipe (as found on this gist https://gist.github.com/kevinelliott/0726211d17020a6abc1f). Note that I expect this to change significantly as I install El Capitan several times.

I use this gist to keep track of the important software and steps required to have a functioning system after a semi-annual fresh install. On average, I reinstall each computer from scratch every 6 months, and I do not perform upgrades between distros.

This keeps the system performing at top speeds, clean of trojans, spyware, and ensures that I maintain good organizational practices for my content and backups. I highly recommend this.

You are encouraged to fork this and modify it to your heart's content to match your own needs.

The reason why you might get certificate errors in Ruby 2.0 when talking HTTPS is because there isn't a default certificate bundle that OpenSSL (which was used when building Ruby) trusts.

Update: this problem is solved in edge versions of rbenv and RVM.

$ ruby -rnet/https -e "Net::HTTP.get URI('https://github.com')"
net/http.rb:917:in `connect': SSL_connect returned=1 errno=0 state=SSLv3
  read server certificate B: certificate verify failed (OpenSSL::SSL::SSLError)

You can work around the issue by installing a certificate bundle that you trust. I trust Mozilla and curl.
