[Problem] Windows 7 + TortoiseGit

[Nihilus]

Hey,

today I installed Windows 7 Professional 64bit.

After installing mysysgit and Tortoisegit i get this error, when i try to pull the newest revision of MaNGOS with Tortoisegit:

git.exe pull -v "origin"

git: 'pull' is not a git-command. See 'git --help'.

Did you mean this?

pull

But Git Clone works perfectly... :confused:

Does anyone have an idea?

mysysgit: 1.6.4

Tortoisegit: 1.1.1.0

Greetings

Just out of curiousity - What is the "right git program"?

[xeross155]

I prefer msysgit and then just use command line, but this differs per user I guess.

Yea, great...

Actually i wanted to know what fixed the issue for him.

hey, so at first i installed here the file " msysGit-fullinstall-1.6.4-preview20090729.exe" -> the error appeared.

After installing the file "Git-1.6.5.1-preview20091022.exe" it worked for me. Ofc I changed the Path in TortoiseGit Settings to the second Git Installpath.

I had another problem with GIT + Win7... Everytime I right-click my desktop, the explorer.exe crashes. This problem disappeared after uninstalling msysgit. I think it's a problem with the browser extension. Does someon know a good solution?

[Nihilus]

My explorer.exe crashed very often, too, but for me the problem was solved after deinstalling firefox.

Now i'm using Opera and have no crashes anymore.

I'm guessing you folks are still on the RC version of 7?...I'm using 7 full retail x64 with none of these problems anymore, I would suggest to update the windows to a RTM or full retail or bumping up to x64 a lot less problems and yest I have msysGit-fullinstall-1.6.4-preview20090729.exe installed and typing this in Firefox version 3.5.5 right now.

[Nihilus]

I haven't got any RC version.

It's a normal Windows 7 Professional x64 Version ad yes my Firefox caused the crashes. ;D

If u search a bit in the internet then u will find lots of more people, who have problems with explorer.exe crashes.

funny... i have been experiencing a strange bug in win 7 winlogon, but otherwise explorer works fine with git... I am running the 7600 release though...Ultimate

[carinasampaio]

so u use w7 64bit? and mangos 64bits?

Hi, I'm using Win7x64 too, and i don't have any problem with git..

i use the 64bit builds from msysgit and tortoisesvn, and the both work properly.. i also installed tortoisegit, but it was a bit to messy for me, so i uninstallted it.

for mangos, i created a batch file in my git folder with does my updates, i use the full path to git and then just two commands

like this:

@echo off

D:\\Programme\\Git\\bin\\git.exe checkout -f

D:\\Programme\\Git\\bin\\git.exe pull origin master

D:\\Programme\\Git\\bin\\git.exe checkout -f

D:\\Programme\\Git\\bin\\git.exe pull origin master

pause

the doubled lines are just to be sure it worked

thats all

hope it helps by your problems

the doubled lines are just to be sure it worked

lol ... what's the point? It either works or errors down, no need for that kind of magic.

[CyberStormX]

thats right, but so, i see, it have worked... when git says. no "something"

sorry, 'm very dizzy at the moment, i just went to party, and it still no end.. im just there to go to toilett, because there is no one

bye bye
