[TxMt] Re: git not found

[Eric O'Brien]

I am far from an expert on this, but if Lewis can do

    git --version

In the Terminal, and get a response, then git would seem to be in his  
path.

This sounds more like the problem where Mac GUI apps don't run the  
bash startup scripts.  So the path defined in them is not read.

I would make a *very small* bet that if Lewis entered

    git --version

In *TextMate* and choose "Text -> Execute Line Inserting Result"

That he'd get:

     /bin/bash: git: command not found

Which is what I just received.
