Hi there, I cannot use magit when accessing a project on my server via tramp. I think this is a question that was asked before (https://emacs.stackexchange.com/questions/35055/magit-with-tramp-is-not-working-with-git-correctly) but I could not find a solution.
Here is the warning message: | Error (magit): Magit requires Git >= 1.9.4, but on /ssh:[email protected]: the version is 1.8.3. | | If multiple Git versions are installed on the host then the | problem might be that TRAMP uses the wrong executable. | | First check the value of `magit-git-executable'. Its value is | used when running git locally as well as when running it on a | remote host. The default value is "git", except on Windows | where an absolute path is used for performance reasons. | | If the value already is just "git" but TRAMP never-the-less | doesn't use the correct executable, then consult the info node | `(tramp)Remote programs'. I checked in with an admin person who told me that there are different versions of git on the server. So I created a symlink in my home bin director (/home/users/lindners/bin) to a different git version. | [lindners@exahead1 bin]$ ls -lh | lrwxrwxrwx. 1 lindners HPCUsers 33 May 29 15:00 git -> /opt/rh/rh-git29/root/usr/bin/git And when I check the version I get this: | [lindners@exahead1 bin]$ git --version | git version 2.9.3 I further added the path to tramp-remote-path: | (add-to-list 'tramp-remote-path "/home/users/lindners/bin") But the problem still persists. If there a solution to this issue? Thanks so much! I am using tramp daily and it is great!
