git-up not working on OS X Mavericks

[bedge]

Using the basic instructions, it seems to install OK:

%> sudo gem install git-up Fetching: git-up-0.5.12.gem (100%) Successfully installed git-up-0.5.12 Parsing documentation for git-up-0.5.12 Installing ri documentation for git-up-0.5.12 Done installing documentation for git-up after 0 seconds 1 gem installed

However it is not functional:

%> git up git: 'up' is not a git command. See 'git --help'.

Did you mean one of these? pull push

I'm setup with homebrew git that's found first before os x git: %> for g in $(which -a git) ; $g --version git version 1.9.0 git version 1.8.5.2 (Apple Git-48)

Not sure what to provide, not a ruby guy.

%> gem list

I tracked down the actual binary, and that does work when invoked directly:

%> /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/2.1.0/gems/git-up-0.5.12/bin/git-up Fetching origin ...

So, the issue then is, what maps "git up" to the above binary?

[rsobik]

It works for me with the default ruby installation. I think that you are using a custom ruby, because the versions don't match. Mine is ruby 2.0.0p247 (2013-06-27 revision 41674) [universal.x86_64-darwin13] while yours seems to be Version 2.1.

Is it possible that the gem binary path is not in your PATH?

[rsobik]

I was able to install git-up on my machine because the dependencies that require building a native extension were already installed.

Check out https://github.com/headius/ruby-atomic/issues/43#issuecomment-38201002 that provides a fix for this issue.

I'm also having issues:

I'm having the same issue as @marcoscaceres

[marcoscaceres]

@sjmarshy, this worked for me:

sudo ARCHFLAGS=-Wno-error=unused-command-line-argument-hard-error-in-future gem install git-up

[kitt]

@marcoscaceres' solution worked for me, also.

I was having the same issue as @bedge. Solved it using rvm to install ruby on my Mac and switch to the global gemset:

curl -sSL https://get.rvm.io | bash -s stable --ruby
rvm --default use ruby-2.1.2
gem update --system
gem update
rvm gemset use global

Then added the ruby gems path to the shell PATH:

PATH="$(ruby -rubygems -e 'puts Gem.user_dir')/bin:$PATH"

And finally installed with gem install git-up (no admin privileges needed).

Thank you @asmod3us! Worked for me on OSX Yosemite Beta... I just used rvm --default use ruby-2.1.3 instead since that was the most current version as of this post :heart:

[nemoDreamer]

If you are running rbenv, you'll need to run rbenv rehash after installing executable gems, so it can symlink its shims.

[dvdchr]

@nemoDreamer thank you. That did it for me.

[mrtrom]

@asmod3us That worked for me! It was a headache before I found this post. Thanks!

[ronanguilloux]

@asmod3us nice trick. Used rvm info to figure out which ruby version to use with the rvm --default use command.
