There is no Homestead.yaml file after running Git clone

Hi, I have been following along with these instructions to get Laravel up and running. I have cloned the Homestead Git repository into my Homestead directory. When I open up the Homestead directory, I do not see a Homestead.yaml file included. I tried to run homestead init in the command line in that directory, but that didn't seem to work. How can I fix this?

Newer versions have moved the "homestead.yaml" file.

Look in your home directory then in the ".homestead" subdirectory.

On Macintosh OS:

To move to that directory: 

cd ~/.homestead

To edit with nano:

nano ~/.homestead/homestead.yaml

To edit with sublime:

sublime ~/.homestead/homestead.yaml
