+retry is a shell script, so drop it somewhere and make sure it's added to your $PATH. Or you can use the following one-liner:
+
+`sudo sh -c "curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kadwanev/retry/master/retry -o /usr/local/bin/retry && chmod +x /usr/local/bin/retry"`
+
+If you're on OS X, spark is also on Homebrew:
