Comment (by tal@…):

 Homebrew installs the minimal Xcode for you (if it isnt installed already)
 and runs "xcode-select --install" to pop up the ToS permission page for
 you to approve.

 Here is a screen capture of a virgin Mac OS X machine where I run
 Terminal, the homebrew install command, and install "git" to show that the
 compiler works:

 (please let me know when you've seen the video so i can remove it from my
 tiny server)
