How do I install imagemagick with homebrew?
GitGccHomebrewOsx LionGcc4Git Problem Overview
I'm trying to install Imagemagick on OSX Lion but something is not working as expected.
-> brew install imagemagick
/usr/local/git/bin/git
==> Cloning https://github.com/adamv/ImageMagick.git
Cloning into /Users/klebershimabuku/Library/Caches/Homebrew/imagemagick--git...
fatal: https://github.com/adamv/ImageMagick.git/info/refs not found: did you run git update-server-info on the server?
Error: Failure while executing: git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/adamv/ImageMagick.git /Users/kleber/Library/Caches/Homebrew/imagemagick--git
brew doctor says:
-> brew doctor
We couldn't detect gcc 4.0.x. Some formulae require this compiler.
Some "config" scripts were found in your path, but not in system or Homebrew folders.
`./configure` scripts often look for *-config scripts to determine if software packagesare installed, and what additional flags to use when compiling and linking.
Having additional scripts in your path can confuse software installed via Homebrew if the config script overrides a system or Homebrew provided script of the same name.

Setting DYLD_LIBARY_PATH can break dynamic linking.
You should probably unset it.
And yes, I have XCode 4.1 installed and running.

Git Solutions
Solution 1 - Git
You could try:
brew update && brew install imagemagick
Solution 2 - Git
The quickest fix for me was doing the following:
cd /usr/local
git reset --hard FETCH_HEAD
Then I retried brew install imagemagick and it correctly pulled the package from the new mirror, instead of adamv.
If that does not work, ensure that /Library/Caches/Homebrew does not contain any imagemagick files or folders. Delete them if it does.
Solution 3 - Git
brew install imagemagick
Don't forget to install also gs which is a dependency if you want to convert pdf to images for example :
brew install ghostscript
Solution 4 - Git
Answering old thread here (and a bit off-topic) because it's what I found when I was searching how to install Image Magick on Mac OS to run on the local webserver. It's not enough to brew install Imagemagick. You have to also PECL install it so the PHP module is loaded.
From this SO answer:
brew install php
brew install imagemagick
brew install pkg-config
pecl install imagick
And you may need to sudo apachectl restart. Then check your phpinfo() within a simple php script running on your web server.
If it's still not there, you probably have an issue with running multiple versions of PHP on the same Mac (one through the command line, one through your web server). It's beyond the scope of this answer to resolve that issue, but there are some good options out there.

Got a similar error and fixed by running brew update before brew install imagemagick
Solution 6 - Git
You could do:
brew reinstall php55-imagick
Where php55 is your PHP version.
