I'm getting '"git-2.5.3-intel-universal-mavericks.pkg" can't be opened because it is from an unidentified developer. Your security preferences allow installation of only apps from the Mac App Store and identified developers. “git-2.5.3-intel-universal-mavericks.pkg” is on the disk image “git-2.5.3-intel-universal-mavericks.dmg”. Safari downloaded this disk image today at 1:49 PM from sourceforge.net.'

I go to "System preferences" > "Security & Privacy" > "Click the lock to make changes", and enter my password to try to get past this. The "lock" then shows open. Unfortunately, when I double-click again on "git-2.5.3-intel-universal-mavericks.pkg", I get the same error message.

??? Thanks Spencer Graves

Same here.

Any suggestions please.

Thanks for the follow-up.

   1.  Please see 

"https://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg78838.html".

   2.  Please update anything else that seems appropriate with your 

experience including attempting to replicate what I documented in "1".

   Hope this helps.

Oh, Apple, what a mess you've created for us. :(

   Every change that tightens security creates a mess for those who 

are forced to learn the new system after it's been implemented and they don't comply.

   What's the relationship between Git, GitHub, and Apple?  From 

what I read, this is a problem for us, because Git is not a registered developer with Apple. If that's true, what needs to happen to get Git registered?

   Best,
   Spencer Graves

Same issue, but my computer doesn't recognize the $ scrutil disable command - any suggestions?

Thanks for your note, Spencer. I updated to 10.11 and tried the "scrutil disable" command in the Recovery partition (withouth the $). Won't recognize the command. Is there any software I may be missing?

   1.  Is that "$ scrutil disable" or "scrutil disable"?  If the 

former, try the latter. (The "$" was provided by the system, not by me.

   2.  Can you upgrade to OS X 10.11?  It probably won't help and it 

might make it worse, but it's easier to get support from the current version.

   3.  Did you boot into the Recovery partitiion before trying 

"scrutil disable"? Below please find the steps I believe I followed to make it work.

   Hope this helps.

[step 1] download and install "git-2.5.3-intel-universal-mavericks.dmg" as normal, ending with "Install successful". Confirm that git is still not properly installed. Shut down or restart.

[step 2] Boot into the Recovery partition by holding down +R while power on and boot.

[step 3] Utilities > Terminal

[step 4] $ scrutil disable

[step 5] Restart normally > Terminal > sudo mv /usr/git /usr/bin/git-system

[step 6] Shut down and reboot into the Recovery partition as above.

[step 7] Utilities > Terminal

[step 8] $ scrutil enable

[step 9] Restart normally ...

same issue. and how can I upload my code directly in browser?

   I fixed the problem as outlined in 

"https://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg78838.html" after first upgrading to OS X 10.11, as I noted in a later reply on this threat (at "https://github.com/timcharper/git_osx_installer/issues/62"). The upgrade may have made the problem worse, but it did not prevent me from fixing it ;-) I would expect the process that I outlined would likely also work with OS X 10.10.5, but I didn't try that.

   *** Does anyone know what might be done to get Git to become 

listed as a registered developer with Apple -- or to get the Git distribution to be accepted more easily (or to get Git to document their OS X install procedure more carefully)?

   Hope this helps,
   Spencer

Apple was kind enough to set the path such that /usr/local/bin precedes /usr/bin. What we need to change is:

• Continue to install git into /usr/local/git
• Add symlinks from /usr/local/git to /usr/local/bin; same for man pages.
• Stop creating /etc/paths.d/, /etc/manpaths.d
• Stop recommending that /usr/bin be moved out of the way.

cmd+r brought to restore menu. Now what I'm looking for, right?
