So I have Git 2.11.1 installed and it's located in E:\Git\cmd\git.exe. I ticked the option in the installer to add it to path.
I tried using the FindGit module via find_package() to find Git, but it's not working. So I tried a simpler case: find_program(GIT_EXECUTABLE git) However it cannot find 'git'. No matter if I specify PATHS either, it won't work. The documentation states it should use PATH at some point to find git.exe, but it doesn't seem that it is doing this. My PATH on Windows is as follows: $ echo %PATH% C:\Program Files\ConEmu\ConEmu\Scripts;C:\Program Files\ConEmu;C:\Program Files\ConEmu\ConEmu;C:\ProgramData\Oracle\Java\javapath;C:\windows\system32;C:\windows;C:\windows\System32\Wbem;C:\windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;C:\Program Files\Beyond Compare 4;E:\ant\bin;E:\android\sdk\tools;E:\android\sdk\platform-tools;E:\code\ziosk-scripts\device-scripts;E:\tools\ninja;E:\Ruby22\bin;E:\Python35;E:\Python35\Scripts;E:\Program Files\CMake\bin;E:\Program Files\CMake\bin;C:\Program Files (x86)\Notepad++;E:\Git\cmd;C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\8.1\Windows Performance Toolkit\;C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Emulator Manager\1.0\;C:\Program Files\TortoiseSVN\bin;C:\Users\robert\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WindowsApps Note that "E:\Git\cmd" is in the list of paths. I'm able to run git.exe commands from CMD as well. Any idea why CMake is not finding git.exe? I'm using CMake v3.8.0-rc2. -- Powered by www.kitware.com Please keep messages on-topic and check the CMake FAQ at: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ Kitware offers various services to support the CMake community.
