Git hub gives instructions on how to install various packages to go.
But when I enter these in PowerShell, for example
go get -u github.com/disintegration/gift
I get a message
package github.com/disintegration/gift: exec: "git": executable file not found in %PATH%
How do I add a package to path?
go get uses git to fetch packages. You need to have git installed and add it to your %PATH%.
A tutorial on how to install git can be found here.
If you have any further questions, dont be afraid to ask.
Regards.
Install git or setup it properly (PATH and so) before trying to use go, as in go get github.com/**

Go is already installed in my system.
and path variable is in .bashrc file.
# Golang
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/go/bin
$ go version
go version go1.16.14 linux/amd64
Now, I am willing to work with Beego and bee dev tools. For that, I installed Beego and Bee by using these commands.
$ go get -u github.com/beego/beego/v2
$ go get -u github.com/beego/bee/v2
both got successfully installed. but when I am using the command bee version it is resulting this in the Terminal.
Command 'bee' not found, did you mean:
command 'tee' from deb coreutils (8.30-3ubuntu2)
command 'see' from deb mime-support (3.64ubuntu1)
Try: sudo apt install <deb name>
I am a beginner in the programming world. I am not sure How to resolve it. Can Someone help me with this?
I had the same issue. When using the command bee is installed in home/go/bin. What I did was copy the bee file from there and paste it in usr/local/go/bin. Also I used go install instead of go get and at the end of the url I added the version I wanted, eg. #v2.0.2
You need to have GOPATH determination. If you don't, create a folder which named as go and it needs to have src,pkg,bin folders.
When you install successfully, you can see bee file in bin folder.
NOTE: You can see go environment with go env command.
I have just downloaded the latest Git for Windows installer, v2.4. It appears to want to install to the standard Windows "Program files" (with-spaces-in-name) directory.
Since I have all my development code in a folder called (simply) "/bin" -- I want to see if there's a command line option or parameter to change the install directory.
In my case, these days I use a environment variable such as GIT_HOME for important software like git; so it would be useful if there was a way to apply that to things like git commands, etc once I have the program installed.

How do I change the directory in Git Bash with Git for Windows?
I also came across a few questions asking: "whereis git". That's answered above, however I take that as an indicator that others may want git somewhere else too.
To start the installer with a different installation path you can open a CMD terminal in the same directory as the installer executable and pass in an option parameter of /DIR="x:\dirname"
For instance, if you have version 2.17.0 for Windows 64bit and you want to install git to D:\git, you would run:
Git-2.17.0-64-bit.exe /DIR="D:\git"
The installer will launch as usual and you need to walk through the other options, but the install location will be the path specified.
Since I just ran into this problem because my SSD is filling up, I figured I'd share the solution I came to on Windows 11 with Git v. 2.37.2.
The best way I could figure was to uninstall Git, then in CMD Prompt use the suggested command from the Git website with an appended --location/ -l flag:
winget install --id Git.Git -e --source winget --location [drive:/directory]
where [drive:/directory] is your target for the install. Had no issues and verified it worked with a project.
Windows, when I try to run npm install, it shows:

Did you install Git correctly?
According to the Bower site, you need to make sure you check the option "Run Git from Windows Command Prompt".
I had this issue where Git was not found when I was trying to install Angular. I re-ran the installer for git and changed my setting and then it worked.
From the bower site:

while #vitocorleone is technically correct. If you have already installed, there is no need to reinstall. You just need to add it to your path. You will find yourself doing this for many of the tools for the mean stack so you should get used to doing it. You don't want to have to be in the folder that holds the executable to run it.
Control Panel --> System and Security --> System
click on Advanced System Settings on the left.
make sure you are on the advanced tab
click the Environment Variables button on the bottom
under system variables on the bottom find the Path variable
at the end of the line type (assuming this is where you installed it)
;C:\Program Files (x86)\git\cmd
click ok, ok, and ok to save
This essentially tells the OS.. if you don't find this executable in the folder I am typing in, look in Path to fide where it is.
Installing git and running npm install from git-bash worked for me. Make sure you are in the correct directory.
Install git and tortoise git for windows and make sure it is on your path, (the installer for Tortoise Git includes options for the command line tools and ensuring that it is on the path - select them).
You will need to close and re-open any existing command line sessions for the changes to take effect.
Then you should be able to run npm install successfully or move on to the next problem!
In my case the issue was not resolved because i did not restart my system. Please make sure you do restart your system.
If you installed GitHubDesktop then the path for git.exe will be ,
C:\Users\<'Username'>\AppData\Local\GitHubDesktop\app-1.1.1\resources\app\git\cmd
Add this path to the environment variables by following,
** (Note: \cmd at the end, not \cmd\git.exe).**
Navigate to the Environmental Variables Editor and find the Path variable in the “System Variables” section. Click Edit… and paste the URL of Git to the end. Save!
Now open a new cmd and type command git. If you are able to see the git usage then it's done.
Now you can execute your command to install your package.
ex: npm install native-base --save
Use Git CMD instead of using Win CMD.
I did install git and tried again and got the same error. But running 'npm install' in a new command prompt window worked for me. Restarting the machine is not required.
Go to Environmental Variables you will find this in Computer Properties->Advance system Setting->Environmental Variables -> Path
Add the path of your git installed int the system.
eg: "C:\Program Files\Git\cmd"
Save it.
Good to go now!!
The issue depends on the command prompt you are using. if you are using your Windows cmd, then it will be fine if you have installed git in your system (note that after installation it gets added to your system path). if you are running on an Anaconda terminal or any other, then you need to install git on your project environment from the terminal.
for anaconda, the problem gets solved by running:
conda install git
Firstly apologies if this is a really simple question but Git is absolutely brand new to me. Basically I've been dabbling with a bit of iOS development for a little while and now have a project idea that I want to start working on and for the first time I'm planning on putting this into source control.
Now I know Xcode 4 has some Git integration but I've spotted a couple of posts that suggest the integration isn't that great and it's better to do it the command line way.
So, I've been following instructions here http://git-scm.com/book/en/Getting-Started-Installing-Git and I've downloaded version 1.7.10.3 for Mac and ran the install.
However when I run git --version I get version 1.7.4.4 which is the version that was installed with Xcode I assume?
My question is, how do I make use of my new version 1.7.10.3? The plan is to learn to use Git via command tools and set up a central repository on a server I have at home, then have local copies on my laptop.
As I say I'm really new to this, so a quick step by step idiots guide would be helpful. I have searched and tried to find details here and on google but other than the suggestion to use Git outside of Xcode I've not found out exactly how to do it.
Any advice, or links to a decent tutorial that covers this would be very much appreciated.
Update:
I've changed the path to the new path in .bash_profile (/usr/local/git/bin) and now get git version 1.7.7.5 (Apple Git-26). This still appears to be the wrong version (although this could be me being dense). I downloaded the installer for OSX from the above link. Should I be doing something else. I want to play around with the command line tools so I can get a proper understanding
Update 2:
I'm now also trying MacPorts as recommended in the article. This seems to be downloading a lot more than just Git though
Xcode installs git in /Applications/Xcode.app/... but if you run 'Install Command Tools' then git gets installed also in /usr/bin/git. Xcode uses its private version in Xcode.app. If you installed git in /usr/local/git/bin then you need to include that directory in your PATH. You should have a .bashrc file (or equivalent for whatever shell you are using). Add
PATH=/usr/local/git/bin:$PATH # your shell might use different syntax.
to that file 'rc' file.
Also, note that Xcode would allow you to accomplish your goal of setting up a remote at home while maintaining a local copy on your laptop. Go to the Xcode 'organizer' and click 'repositories'. There you will find all your machine's Git repositories. Choose one, select the 'remotes' folder and then '+' to add your home remote. I use Xcode this way.
Credits goes to #GoZoner for the answer. I'm just summing up everything.
Download official git installer from : http://git-scm.com/download/mac
Install and add its directory to your path :
echo "PATH=/usr/local/git/bin:\$PATH" >> ~/.bash_profile
source ~/.bash_profile
The best way is:
step 1:
Install homebrew on your mac this is the official website Homebrew homepage
From a Terminal prompt:
/usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
step 2:
From a terminal prompt
brew install git
I am trying to import a svn repository into git on Windows 7. I have Ruby/Gems/svn2git installed, but when I run this command:
svn2git http://svn.server/path
I get the following error:
C:/Ruby192/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems/svn2git-2.0.0/lib/svn2git/migration.rb:226:i
n `popen': No such file or directory - git svn init --no-metadata --trunk=trunk
--tags=tags --branches=branches http://svn.server/path (Errno::ENO
ENT)
I don't know what this error means. All files are in the correct place as far as I can tell, and copying the repository to my local system doesn't work. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
EDIT: My SVN repository has the default trunk/branch structure.
Svn2Git documentation states that depends on git-core (msysgit in windows) and git-svn, since the error is related to the "git svn" command, i guess you'll have to install it and make it available in your PATH.
Check this other StackOverflow question on how to install both git-core and git-svn.
