+Rbenv handles the installation and management of multiple Ruby environments. Ruby 1.9.3 is required for Octopress and using rbenv you can install it with ease.
+
+## Standard Rbenv Installation
+
+The standard method for installing rbenv uses Git. From your terminal, run the following commands:
+
+```sh
+cd
+git clone git://github.com/sstephenson/rbenv.git .rbenv
+echo 'export PATH="$HOME/.rbenv/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bash_profile
+echo 'eval "$(rbenv init -)"' >> ~/.bash_profile
+git clone git://github.com/sstephenson/ruby-build.git ~/.rbenv/plgs/ruby-build
+source ~/.bash_profile
+```
+
+**Zsh users:** In the instructions above substitute `~/.bash_profile` with `~/.zshenv`.
+
+## Alternate Installation Using Homebrew
+
+If you use Homebrew on Mac OS X you may prefer to install rbenv like this:
+
+```sh
+brew update
+brew install rbenv
+brew install ruby-build
+```
+
+## Install Ruby 1.9.3
+
+Next install Ruby 1.9.3 and you'll be all set.
+
+```sh
+rbenv install 1.9.3-p0
+rbenv rehash
+```
+
+Run `ruby --version` to be sure you're using Ruby 1.9.3. If you're having trouble, [seek help here](https://github.com/sstephenson/rbenv/issues)
