$ curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php
$ (sudo) mv composer.phar /usr/local/bin/composer
Manual Method

I found an easier way to globally install composer than the manual proscribed in the github readme.md. It's actually on the getcomposer.org website:

$ curl -s http://getcomposer.org/installer | php
$ sudo mv composer.phar /usr/local/bin/composer.phar
And if you're even more lazy, like me, you can create an alias:

$ alias composer='/usr/local/bin/composer.phar'
This way you can invoke composer with just composer
