I use brew upgrade git to this version on OSX. And when I use git add -i, it says:

Can't locate Git.pm in @INC (@INC contains: @@@/git/2.0.3/lib/perl5/site_perl /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Library/Perl/5.16/darwin-thread-multi-2level /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/Library/Perl/5.16/darwin-thread-multi-2level /Users/guangchen/.opam/system/lib/perl5/darwin-thread-multi-2level /Users/guangchen/.opam/system/lib/perl5 /Library/Perl/5.16/darwin-thread-multi-2level /Library/Perl/5.16 /Network/Library/Perl/5.16/darwin-thread-multi-2level /Network/Library/Perl/5.16 /Library/Perl/Updates/5.16.2 /System/Library/Perl/5.16/darwin-thread-multi-2level /System/Library/Perl/5.16 /System/Library/Perl/Extras/5.16/darwin-thread-multi-2level /System/Library/Perl/Extras/5.16 .) at /usr/local/Cellar/git/2.0.3/libexec/git-core/git-add--interactive line 7.

Do you have Git.pm on your disc, somewhere under /usr/local/Cellar/git ?

Which perl do you have, (may be more than 1?)
I tend to have different perl installations under Mac OS, whch needs
tweeking in the PATH, to have the "right one" in the PATH before e.g. the
one that comes with Mac OS.
(Or write a wrapper script that sets up the PATH and then calls git)

What does "type perl" in a command window say?

I used 1.9.2 before, it was installed with brew as well.
I didn’t found Git.pm under /usr/local/Cellar/git/, /usr/local/Cellar/git/2.0.3/, and I looked at /usr/local/Cellar/git/1.9.2/, there isn’t a Git.pm either.

type perl says:
perl is /usr/bin/perl

Additionally, perl --version says:

This is perl 5, version 16, subversion 2 (v5.16.2) built for darwin-thread-multi-2level
(with 3 registered patches, see perl -V for more detail)

So git add -i needs perl (which is there) and Git.pm (which isn't there)
There doesn't seem to be a Git.pm at all on your disc ?
I haven't used brew myself, I use to clone git from
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git,
checkout the version I want,
and run "make install" which installs git under $HOME/bin,
and Git.pm under /Users/tb/share/perl/5.14.2/Git.pm
You can try that, clone into a directory, run "make -k", and see if 
there is a Git.pm ?

```
