23 September 2015 Sync pip with Mac OS updates

My pip installation recently broke after a Mac OS update. 

$ pip
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/bin/pip\n", line 5, in <module>
    from pkg_resources import load_entry_point
  File "/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/Extras/lib/python/pkg_resources.py\n", line 2793, in <module>
    working_set.require(__requires__)
  File "/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/Extras/lib/python/pkg_resources.py\n", line 673, in require
    needed = self.resolve(parse_requirements(requirements))
  File "/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/Extras/lib/python/pkg_resources.py\n", line 576, in resolve
    raise DistributionNotFound(req)
pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: pip==1.1

Updating my pip installation fixes the break: 

$ sudo easy_install -U pip
