So git add -i needs perl (which is there) and Git.pm (which isn't there)
There doesn't seem to be a Git.pm at all on your disc ?
I haven't used brew myself, I use to clone git from
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git,
checkout the version I want,
and run "make install" which installs git under $HOME/bin,
and Git.pm under /Users/tb/share/perl/5.14.2/Git.pm
You can try that, clone into a directory, run "make -k", and see if 
there is a Git.pm ?
