With default Makefile settings, most of the programs are now installed
|
||||
outside your $PATH, except for "git", "gitk", "git-gui" and some server
|
||||
side programs that needs to be accessible when connecting over ssh.
|
||||
|
||||
When talking to remote repository over ssh, necessary server side programs
|
||||
are now invoked with "git $program" notation, not with "git-$program"
|
||||
notation. This should work with both servers running older git where you
|
||||
had all of these programs installed on $PATH, or newer git where you have
|
||||
only "git" on $PATH. However, if the remote side is running a custom
|
||||
software that restricts programs you can run over ssh, it might cause
|
||||
problems. Use --upload-pack="git-upload-pack" (when using ls-remote,
|
||||
fetch and pull on the client side), --receive-pack="git-receive-pack"
|
||||
(when using push on the client side), or --exec="git-upload-archive" (when
|
||||
using git-archive) as appropriate when talking to such a remote.
|
||||
With the default Makefile settings, most of the programs are now
|
||||
installed outside your $PATH, except for "git", "gitk", "git-gui" and
|
||||
some server side programs that need to be accessible for technical
|
||||
reasons. Invoking a git subcommand as "git-xyzzy" from the command
|
||||
line has been deprecated since early 2006 (and officially announced in
|
||||
1.5.4 release notes); use of them from your scripts after adding
|
||||
output from "git --exec-path" to the $PATH is still supported in this
|
||||
release, but users are again strongly encouraged to adjust their
|
||||
scripts to use "git xyzzy" form, as we will stop installing
|
||||
"git-xyzzy" hardlinks for built-in commands in later releases.
|
||||
|
||||
Source changes needed for porting to MinGW environment are now all in the
|
||||
main git.git codebase.
