Git question

[Phil Dobbin]

Hi, all.

My version of Git is in an nonstandard location '/opt/local/bin/git' so 
is there a way to tell BBEdit where to look for it?


Any help appreciated.

Cheers,

 Phil...

BBEdit looks in /opt/local/bin/, but does so after looking at 
more typical install locations (most notably /usr/bin/), so if 
/usr/bin/git exists, that will be found and used first.


We generally recommend using the tools that are provided by 
Xcode since those are the ones we test with, but if there's some 
compelling reason not to do that :-) you can manually override 
the path:


defaults write com.barebones.bbedit GitToolPathOverride 
-string "/path/to/git"

Hi, Rich.

Many thanks for that. That'll do nicely :-)
