I need to use Twitter's twurl command. In so doing I have installed Ruby and then Gem under Linux.
I've downloaded the latest version of twurl but when I attempt to use it to do an install it silently does nothing. I've also tried installing the oauth gem, but the same result. Gem must work because I can do a build using the gemspec file and it creates a gem file.
cam:~/twurl-master$ sudo gem build twurl.gemspec
sh: git: command not found
/usr/local/lib/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/core_ext/kernel_require.rb:55: command not found: git ls-files

I am at a loss as to know what to do. I've searched on Google but nobody else seems to have this particular problem. No error message is highly unhelpful...
