Resolved /usr/local/bin folder

[mares992]

Hello guys,

I'm buy first mac few days ago and this is all new for me. Maybe my question is stupid for you but it is confused for me 🙂

So, when I try to install Composer they say to me to launch command in terminal

mv composer.phar /usr/local/bin/composer

But I don't have /user/local/bin folder. It is normal or it is problem with my system? I'm make new folder and now is okay but I need to know it is normal?

Thank you!

I guess a fresh install doesn't have anything under /usr/local. /usr/local/bin is a traditional unix-y place to put locally installed applications. I would not expect a Mac aware installer to use /usr/local/bin, but if you are installing some sort of generic unix/linux application, it's not out of the question. Creating it is fine.

/usr/local is indeed empty in a clean installation.
