Error: Git must be installed and in your PATH! #51

I tried to install Linuxbrew and I got the error from this issue's title. I didn't have Ruby, but the installer took care of it:

[x80486@uplink ~]$ sh -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Linuxbrew/install/master/install.sh)"

Error: Git must be installed and in your PATH!

I think the same should happens for git since it's a dependency, or am I missing something?

It's meant to use curl as a fallback if you don't have git available. Though that functionality does not seem to be working, which is a bug.

Try running…

/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/bin/brew install git
brew update

or if that fails…

HOMEBREW_NO_AUTO_UPDATE=1 /home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/bin/brew install git
brew update

@x80486 @sjackman I met the same issue when I tried to follow the guide here: https://docs.brew.sh/Homebrew-on-Linux#install.

As I can see, I have already have git installed, but it still complain about git, why that happened?

$ which git
/usr/local/git/bin/git

And I also tried to use brew doctor and brew install git, it doesn't help. Could you show me some hints on how to make it work on linux?

Thanks in advance

The suggested commands above failed for me:

$ HOMEBREW_NO_AUTO_UPDATE=1 brew install git
Error: Git is unavailable
