For anyone trying to do the same:
1) signup to github
2) download github for mac
3) navigate to the repository on the github website andclick the
clone for mac
button
3) install mamp for local testing

4) change the mamp apache document root (in preferences) to your git hub folder
5) follow the guide from the
run the build section

I just downloaded the zip file from github, edited the _build/config.sample... files to suit my localhost installation, went to the browser and ran transport.core.php file from the browser. Then I ran setup as usual.
