We tried older versions of Git when this came up three weeks ago; didn't
help. I'll try GitHub for Mac tomorrow - don't think the students have
Homebrew.
Thx,

Looks like most of the advice comes down to "install a different Git".
You could track down an older installer for Macs, install GitHub for
Mac (https://mac.github.com/), or install the command line tools,
either via XCode or by downloading just the command line tools from
Apple's developer site (for which you have to register for a free
Apple developer account). If, for some reason, folks are already using
Homebrew it can also install Git.
If you try GitHub for Mac I don't know to where that installs Git.

Hi,
We had another couple of students run into "Git doesn't run on Mac
OS X 10.8" problems today - as with the workshop in Toronto at the
beginning of the month, 'git --version' works fine, but anything
beyond that (such as 'git init .') fails because of a symbol
binding problem (missing symbol is strlcpy_chk, for those who
care). The furthest we got then was:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/22920497/git-mountain-lion-dyld-lazy-symbol-binding-failed-symbol-not-found-str
Does anyone have an advance on this? I'd like to be able to get
them back on track tomorrow morning if I can...
Thanks,
Greg
