I have used homebrew to install the newest version of bash on my local system. I have added a symbolic link from: /usr/local/bin/bash
to /usr/local/Cellar/bash/4.2.20/bin/bash
and added the line: /usr/local/bin/bash
to /etc/shells
When I load my terminal I am still getting the older version of bash, also when i execute the command: /etc/local/Cellar/bash/4.2.20/bin/bash
my prompt changes to bash-4.2$
but when i do bash --version
it still says I am in version 3.2. Does anyone know what step I am missing?
