Distributed Mac binary (via Carthage) depends on Homebrew’d openssl

This makes it hard to distribute a binary on Mac that uses ObjectiveGit.

I realize this is probably a deep seated distribution problem, I'm willing to put in the time to fix it, but need guidance and encouragement. Thanks.

Hey, another GitX fork, which stumbled on the exact same problem I did just a few days ago 😉.

@mxcl Can you give a try to the PR just above, just so I have another pair of eyes ?

[mxcl]

Great! I’ll do it. Will let you know.

[mxcl]

This didn't work for my GitX installation since it runs in the ObjectiveGit.framework build and at that point there is no bundle to copy the dylibs to.

[tiennou]

I've just checked my GitX by moving the submodule against that, and I can confirm its included ObjectiveGit.framework is correct, and it runs.

• Did the script error in some way while building ObjectiveGit ?
• Can you provide the output of otool -L against your GitX executable, and it's ObjectiveGit framework ?
• How is your build system setup, is it submodules or carthage/CocoaPods ?

[mxcl]

K right I see how it can work. I built with Carthage on CLI. So that is no good yeah. But if you build as source from the GitX project it makes sense that it would work.
