Bundled Git binary not working on macOS?

#1

Roughly a year ago I set up a MacBook (Sequoia) and installed Sublime Merge. I switched the Git binary in the preferencens to bundled and as far as I remember that worked.

This month I set up another MacBook (also Sequoia) and confusingly this didn’t work anymore. I just noticed that it also doesn’t seem to work on the first MacBook anymore either. I keep getting “git failed with exit code 1”.

Does anyone else experience this?

Install the macOS Command Line Tools: xcode-select --install
This will install Git to /usr/bin/git
After that I would recommend using Homebrew to manage/update your Git install.

As I said, I’m asking about the bundled Git binary, not a system-installed one, which does work without issues.

G’day @se1,

Thanks for reaching out, and sorry to hear the bundled Git isn’t working as expected.

To help me look into this, could you confirm how you installed Sublime Merge (e.g. via https://www.sublimemerge.com/download, homebrew, or another method)?

Cheers,
