How to install ssh-copy-id on OSX (the easy way!)

If you have migrated from Linux to OSX… you might well be missing ssh-copy-id. Frankly, the easier way to do this is to install the Brew repository / package manager for Mac and then install ssh-copy-id on your Mac in one command.

Install Brew (if you don’t already have this awesome tool!).

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

Then simply..

brew install ssh-copy-id

Job done!
