### OS X Mountain Lion (10.8) and below ### Linux or Windows 10 Subsystem for Linux
Because GitHub now only allows clients that support TLS 1.2 to access repositories over HTTPS, the Homebrew installer will use the Git protocol when run on systems older than OS X Mavericks (10.9). This requires the availability of a `git` binary, which can be provided by pre-installing the [Command Line Tools for Xcode](https://developer.apple.com/download/more/). Homebrew will also require the Command Line Tools or Xcode in order to automatically compile and install a newer `curl` and `git` with support for TLS 1.2.
Check out [the Linuxbrew installation documentation](Linuxbrew.md).
