Allan Odgaard has stopped development of the git textmate bundle and has graciously handed the baton over to me.

The git textmate bundle can now be found at:

Set the TM_GIT shell variable in the textmate preferences to your git executable to work to solve the command not found problem.

I had the same problem as you and I noticed that whereis was returning nothing for git, I created a link in /usr/bin pointing to my original git in /usr/local/bin, the whereis started returning the path /usr/bin/git and the bundle started working

Geez. I think that it’s a problem with the Git version, and that TextMate isn’t finding the Port version. Try uninstalling the Git version that you installed from source. And then if that doesn’t work try asking some people on IRC, ##textmate on irc.freenode.net would be a good place, and if they can’t think of anything just use SVN ;p.

(Thanks for the help thus far, Travis)

What does your path say? (run $PATH in command line)

Reinstalled from port, checked out bundle from SVN again – still no joy – same errors as before.

Ah, I installed Git manually rather than using port.

Tom are you sure that you have Git installed? If you have MacPorts installed run: sudo port install git-core

I tried it, but it doesn’t seem to work for me. I get messages like:

“sh: line 1: git: command not found /tmp/temp_textmate.HDp2oQ:5: command not found: git ls-files -o –exclude-per-directory=.gitignore /tmp/temp_textmate.HDp2oQ:5: command not found: git ls-files -m –exclude-per-directory=.gitignore Cancel”
(when committing)

“/tmp/temp_textmate.nRqCW9:4: command not found: git log IndexPage.txt”
(when showing log)

“sh: line 1: git: command not found sh: line 1: git: command not found /tmp/temp_textmate.0PsLEE:4: command not found: git branch”
(when getting branch list)
