git is software which stores arbitrary amount of revisions of a set of
files. Thus think about it as being a dump backup system with a lot of
features code writers enjoy such as "fetching updates" from remote
locations and trying to "merge changes" in a intelligent way if
possible.
How to install? Try #osx or #vim on irc.freenode.net.
I'm not using OSX. People are likely to help you in real time there.

In your terminal. A terminal only displays text. The app doing the work
is your shell (/bin/sh). You can also run shell commands within vim eg:
:! git diff > patch.patch
or :call system('git diff > patch.patch")
