I am trying to have the "jrnl" command line application installed in my git bash, but I couldn't manage to do it. Is it possible to have it installed somehow? I am running Windows 10 at the moment.
The jrnl application I am mentioning is this one:
https://jrnl.sh/en/stable/
The git bash I am using is this one:
https://git-scm.com/downloads
Thanks!
I have found a way! I did not know about pipx. As soon as I got it installed, I was able to run:
pipx install jrnl
Then I configured this in my .bashrc:
alias journal='winpty jrnl'
After that I just had to restart my git bash, using jrnl through the "journal" command.
journal at 8pm: done
Thanks

I was trying to install git subrepo on MacOs with bash 5.0.18 installed. When I source .bashrc, I get error message :
The git-subrepo command requires that 'Bash 4+' is installed. It
doesn't need to be your shell, but it must be in your PATH. You appear
to be on macOS. Try: 'brew install bash'. This will not change your
user shell, it just installs 'Bash 5.x'.
Is git subrepo not compatible with bash 5 or is there any solution to make it work?
https://github.com/ingydotnet/git-subrepo
apparently, I can install it using brew with less hassle:
brew install git-subrepo
It should be a PATH issue, as illustrated by ingydotnet/git-subrepo issue 463
I realized there was a part of my path not being specified which caused this issue.
I am trying to install Git on Windows 10, but without Git Bash or GUI. I want to use Git in PowerShell and I would like not to bloat my PC. I know the install size is small, but that's not the issue.
I've tried going through the installer from git-SMC/Git for Windows a couple times, but it appears I can not opt out of GUI and Bash. Any idea how I can do this? Perhaps Chocolatey is of any use?
Thanks in advance!
You can use MinGit
MinGit is provided on the Git for Windows repository
https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/releases
It does not come preinstalled with Git Bash, GitK or Vi etc.
The github repo publishes portable and minimum versions of the binary releases which don't require installation. You could prune out the parts you don't want if you need to cut it down further.

Or instalation Using Chocolatey, if that will be ok for you

I started with Git and then removed everything except the following dirs:
\mingw64\libexec\git-core
\ssl
Rename git-core to cmd and move it up 2 levels and you don't even have to edit your .gitconfig.
Works like a charm for me.
this is what I get when I use bower init
what could be the problem??
The problem is with the terminal/console you're using to.
I ran into this same problem other day, I was using Git bash as my terminal, and trying to run this command with Node.js command prompt worked normally.
Try to use another terminal, like cmder (I really recommend this to Windows users), Node.js command prompt or even Windows cmd itself. Hope to have helped you. Best wishes!
The solution is to install GIT bash and avoid
using MinTTY and follow the documentation. Here is the solution:
Uninstall existing GIT bash Reinstall GIT bash Set up during
installation:
Select Use Git from the Windows Command Prompt
Select Checkout Windows-style, commit Unix-style line endings
Select Use Windows' default console window
Okay this works for sure -
Go to https://cygwin.com/install.html and download either the
32 or 64 bit version of Cygwin.
Run the install and install it onto one of your drives.
Run the Cygwin.bat and you will get the same command line
interface.
When you run bower init, it will work just fine. The Mintty that
comes with GIT is broken for somethings. Use the shell that comes
with Cygwin and you will be fine.
It works for me no problem. I used the 64 bit version on a Window 8 64bit OS. Good Luck!
You're most likely running C:\Program Files\Git\git-bash.exe and can instead run C:\Program Files\Git\bin\bash.exe to eliminate the issue. This avoids having to install another yet another terminal.
I need to get a classroom full of students to install git on their computers quickly and during a lecture. I've been inspired by the installation process of meteor to try and implement something similiar, i.e:
curl easy-install-git.com | sh
I know there already exist binaries and easy ways to install git, but those are all multi-step processes and this would be one simple command in terminal. How do I write an sh script to do this? (Or better yet, does one exist already?)
Any other easy ways to do a git install on a clean machine would also be appreciated.
5 years later, the easiest/fastest way to install Git on Mac is to type:
git --version
If you don’t have it installed already, it will prompt you to install it.
But that is an old Apple fork of Git (2.10 at most)
The git-osx-installer dmg files are up-to-date, with Git 2.18.
As seen in this script, it can be curl'd.
Before I start, let me say that I looked at all the similar questions and it appears that no one had this particular problem:
I installed git.
Next I ran this from the command line:
bash < <(curl -s https://rvm.beginrescueend.com/install/rvm)
My result is
bash: line 151: git: command not found
bash: line 153: git: command not found
ERROR: Unable to clone the RVM repository, attempted both git:// and https://
What did I do wrong here? I am attempting to install this on osx Lion.
Additionally, can someone explain to me what the beginning of the bash command does? bash < <(...)
Just for my own curiosity :)
Thanks!
You need to have git installed first. The command executes the script downloaded with curl from the given url using bash. The <(...) is apparently used to provide a list of commands as per http://tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/process-sub.html.
You either installed git wrong, or it's not in your path. Have you installed XCode? It should automatically install git 1.7.4 and put it in your path. You'll also need to have XCode installed to be able to compile any ruby versions using RVM.
