First a disclaimer: I have never used OSX and all I can give are educated
guesses. So proceed with care. However, I am quite sure it should work like
this:
The darktable configuration is in ~/.config/darktable/, that is, in your home
directory in a hidden folder. We had people struggling to find it since Finder
hides it. In there, create a file called "luarc" and a folder called "lua". Put
the Lua scripts into that folder and put a line like
require "copy_paste_metadata"
into luarc. Note that it's the filename without the leading lua/ and without
the .lua extension. So if you create subfolders there you have to add them.
Alternatively you can check out the whole git repo and update that every now
and then to get updates to the scripts:
cd ~/.config/darktable/
git clone https://github.com/darktable-org/lua-scripts.git lua
echo 'require "official/copy_paste_metadata"' >> luarc
Whenever you want to update the scripts just do
cd ~/.config/darktable/lua/
git pull
