Error while running git (version 1.7) on windows #155

Closed wclr closed 11 years ago

wclr commented 11 years ago

I understand that it is the problem of node but it causes git (and ungit) to fail.

If run git --version from command line (windows 7 x64 )I got: git version 1.7.11.msysgit.1

If I try to run it from node (as ungit does):

require('child_process').exec('git --version',function(err, stdout, stderr){console.log(err, stdout, stderr)})

stdout contains git version 1.7.11.msysgit.1 but err is not null but: [Error: Command failed: ] killed: false, code: 1, signal: null }

Didn't you met such behaviour and what is the way to workaround/fix it?

Ah interesting. No I've only used 1.8.3 for this, but I just added a comment in #146 that I'll see if I can get it to work in 1.7 when I get some time over. In the meantime I'll add the required git version to the readme.

Yes, I installed 1.8.3 it works now, thanks.

Ok I'll close this for now, might try to do something to support 1.7 in the future if there's interest in it.
