Hi All-

TextMate looks terrific! Thanks Allan for making it available under the GNU General Public License! I installed the binary and it works for me, but I'd like to build it from source, and I'm having a bit of trouble with that.

At https://github.com/textmate/textmate I see the following instructions:

============== In the simplest case you would run:

$ git clone https://github.com/textmate/textmate.git $ cd textmate $ git submodule update --init $ ./configure && ninja ==============

I did all the prerequisites using homebrew without apparent problems:

============== $ brew install ragel boost multimarkdown hg ninja capnp google-sparsehash libressl

$ brew install proctools ==============

But the last step in building TextMate (./configure && ninja) fails for me with:

============== ... [445/1150] Compile ‘Applications/commit/src/commit.mm’… FAILED: xcrun clang++ -include /Users/alpha/build/TextMate/Shared/PCH/prelude.mm -c -pipe -fPIC -gdwarf-2 -m64 -mmacosx-version-min=10.7 -funsigned-char -D'NULL_STR="\uFFFF"' -DREST_API='"https://api.textmate.org"' -Wall -Wwrite-strings -Wformat -Winit-self -Wmissing-include-dirs -Wno-parentheses -Wno-sign-compare -Wno-switch -IShared/include -fcolor-diagnostics -DNDEBUG -Os -DCOMPILE_DATE="`date +%Y-%m-%d`" -fvisibility=hidden -std=c++1y -stdlib=libc++ -fobjc-abi-version=3 -fobjc-arc -fobjc-call-cxx-cdtors -o /Users/alpha/build/TextMate/Applications/commit/src/commit.o -MMD -MF /Users/alpha/build/TextMate/Applications/commit/src/commit.o.d -I/Users/alpha/build/TextMate/include Applications/commit/src/commit.mm Applications/commit/src/commit.mm:1:10: fatal error: 'CommitWindow/CommitWindow.h' file not found #include <CommitWindow/CommitWindow.h> ^ 1 error generated. [445/1150] Run test ‘/Users/alpha/bu...TextMate/Frameworks/scm/test_scm’… ninja: build stopped: subcommand failed. ==============

It's strange because the reportedly missing file is apparently present (if not exactly where ninja seems to be looking for it):

============== $ pwd /Users/alpha/sources/textmate $ find . -name "CommitWindow.h" ./Frameworks/CommitWindow/src/CommitWindow.h ==============

I didn't think I would need to set any of the variables:

================= builddir — location of built files. Defaults to ~/build/TextMate. identity — for Apple’s codesign. Defaults to ad-hoc signing, which does not use an identity at all. boostdir — location of boost includes. By default it will search various locations including MacPorts and Homebrew. sparsedir — location of sparsehash includes. By default it will search various locations including MacPorts and Homebrew. CC and CXX — C and C++ compiler. =================

so I didn't, but maybe I need to set boostdir manually?

Any advice on this, or is this a bona fide bug in the build process (seems unlikely)? I've never filed an issue in github. Is that how I would go about reporting a bug?

Thanks!

Best, Kevin
