git 2.6.3 won't install over 2.5.4 on OSX 10.11.2
Hi, First, thanks for building and maintaining this git installer.
When I try to install the latest git 2.6.3 over the latest Mac El Capitan (10.11.2), I still get the git version that came with El Capitan, 2.5.4.
Here's my path post install: -bash: /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.4/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/opt/X11/bin:/usr/local/git/bin:/usr/texbin: No such file or directory
I"m not the sharpest on linux/unix but 2 things jump out.
-
The last item in that path seems clearly wrong but I'm not sure if it is related to this problem. It seems extraneous.
-
The install is not overwriting the 2.5.4 git when I go look at the executable git in the above path
In usr/local/bin lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 14 Dec 27 10:19 git -> ../git/bin/git
In /usr/local/git/bin I have: -rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 5348344 Dec 6 21:58 git -rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 30768 Dec 6 21:58 git-credential-osxkeychain -rwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 162429 Dec 6 21:58 git-cvsserver lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 3 Dec 27 10:19 git-receive-pack -> git -rwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 2600092 Dec 6 21:58 git-shell lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 3 Dec 27 10:19 git-upload-archive -> git -rwxr-xr-x 2 root wheel 2848224 Dec 6 21:58 git-upload-pack -rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 348074 Dec 6 21:58 gitk
In /usr/bin I have these files: -rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 18176 Dec 2 23:36 git -rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 18208 Dec 2 23:36 git-cvsserver -rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 18208 Dec 2 23:36 git-receive-pack -rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 18192 Dec 2 23:35 git-shell -rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 18208 Dec 2 23:36 git-upload-archive -rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 18208 Dec 2 23:35 git-upload-pack
(That Dec 2 file seems too small compared to the Dec 6 executable version above.)
Today is Dec 27, and so the installer is doing something, but it isn't affecting the old 2.5.4. git dated December 6.
Any ideas?
Thanks
