Is there already a pre-built package for MacOSX?

Homebrew has it.

I sadly usually wait for the official AppleGit Xcode tools release for the Keychain integration I'm so sadly dependent on.

The 2.9 git install from homebrew prompted me for keychain access and then just "worked", this morning. My first time using brew git. So you may want to give it a whirl.

I'm not exactly sure what your use case is, but would this help? https://help.github.com/articles/caching-your-github-passwor...

I use brew'd git alongside git credential-osxkeychain.
