Enter 'which git' in a terminal.  The 'which' utility looks up which
executable from $PATH will be run if you use 'git' (in this case) as a
command word, i.e., without specifying its path.

This should point to your newly installed git.  It probably doesn't, and
you can compare it and your $PATH (try: 'echo "$PATH"' in a terminal) to
see why.
