Not working after upgrading to El Capitan OSX 10.11

Not working after upgrading to El Capitan OSX 10.11

[snoepkast]

Found this issue via Google. So will post what fixed it for me:

1. brew uninstall git
2. brew install git --without-completions
3. Follow the instructions on how to use it as a plugin, doing a git clone because the one from the oh-my-zsh plugins directory didn't work for me

So now I have it working with the following versions:

• Mac OS 10.12.5
• zsh 5.3.1 (x86_64-apple-darwin16.6.0) (installed via brew)
• git version 2.13.3 (installed via brew)

[shelldandy]

Not working on osSierra either 😢

[bobthecow]

Not without more info :)

What shell are you using? How did you install git-flow? Do you use an os package manager or shell plugin manager? Does regular git completion work for you? Does any other tab completion (besides files) work?

[davidetruffo]

fair enough :)

i use iTerm + zsh + oh-my, and brew to install most of the packages (used to install both git and git-flow)
Regular git completion works, as well as other tab completion (besides files) such as grunt, bower, pip, pyenv, brew, and others.

let me know if you need any further infos

thanks

Also doesn't work here.

I think this has to do with _git completion in /usr/share .. It's not writable on capital because of the system integrity stuff. I could be wrong though. Haven't tested it yet.

same settings as @joshuakarjala here:

• zsh 5.1.1 (x86_64-apple-darwin15.0.0)
• oh-my-zsh - latest from upgrade_oh_my_zsh
• git version 2.6.2
• iTerm2 Build 2.1.4
• OS X El Capitan (10.11.1)

[c0nscience]

I got the same error/issue on my fresh install mbp. I have the same environment as @davidetruffo

[istrasci]

Same settings as @davidetruffo and I also get the error.

[davidetruffo]

Hi @bobthecow,
any news on this? :)

[bobthecow]

From what I can tell, it should still be working. Looking and git and zsh source, I don't see a reason for it to break. But to be honest, I just don't know. I don't use zsh, so this version of the completion is largely user supported. For fun, can one of you replace your _git completion file with the current HEAD version here:

http://sourceforge.net/p/zsh/code/ci/master/tree/Completion/Unix/Command/_git?format=raw

… and see if that fixes things?

[davidetruffo]

Will try it tomorrow

@bobthecow no luck.. everything seems to be up to date..
I don't have much knowledge about bash-shell-scripts, but is there any way to make it fail loudly, or to see if the plugin actually loads?

[c0nscience]

I just uninstalled git 2.6.2 and stick with the apple git version and it works all fine

[davidetruffo]

I just tried, and yes, it works properly with the apple version of git (git version 2.4.9 (Apple Git-60))

[istrasci]

I also confirm it works when downgrading to git version 2.4.9 (Apple Git-60).

Maybe because this?

[EkkoG]

I have close SIP feature,it also does not work.

[EkkoG]

Yes,my git installed by Homebrew, when I unlink git,use the system's git,it works.

[istrasci]

Any progress on this at all? Still works with git version 2.5.4 (Apple Git-61), but not with the higher-versioned Homebrew ones.

[esetnik]

I faced the same issue. I haven't dug into it too much yet. It's unfortunate as Apple git is very old.

[davidetruffo]

Hi people!

Just want to highlight that:

• Mac OS 10.11.3
• zsh 5.2 (x86_64-apple-darwin15.0.0)
• git version 2.7.2 (the brewed one)
• iTerm2 2.9.20160206

using git-flow-completion as a plugin it works again

I'm not sure why though :)

[esetnik]

@davidetruffo can you provide some further configuration to help me get it going? I believe I have the same environment as you. I'm using oh-my-zsh with plugins git-flow-avh and git-flow-completion, but I've tried it with both git-flow and git-flow-avh.

[davidetruffo]

@esetnik i'll do my best :)

I am using zsh and oh-my-zsh (master branch) (don't know if that makes any difference honestly)
I've also realised that i had a git-flow-completion folder in my custom plugins (in .oh-my-zsh/custom/plugins) but it was actually not used (i removed it, and it's still working, maybe it was a legacy from some test i've done)

In my .zshrc file, i have those plugins enabled (i have many others, but those are the ones related to git)
git git-flow

In the same file, i also have this line:
fpath=(/usr/local/share/zsh-completions $fpath)
but then again, i'm not sure if this is related.

Things that i've done recently:

• update/upgrade brew
• upgraded to iTerm2 v3 beta (the version number is 2.9.20160206)

Any better? :)

[esetnik]

@davidetruffo Thanks so much for the detailed analysis. I found two points of discrepancy between my config and yours:

1. I had git-flow-completion enabled as a plugin. It's actually available in the .oh-my-zsh plugins directory but you may have followed the git-flow-completion instructions at one point which suggests cloning this repo as a custom plugin.
2. I did not have fpath=(/usr/local/share/zsh-completions $fpath)

I found that a combination of removing the git-flow-completion from the plugins and adding fpath=(/usr/local/share/zsh-completions $fpath) fixed it for me as well!

I'm not sure what that magic line does but it works and it might help @bobthecow get to the bottom of this.

[davidetruffo]

@esetnik i'm glad i could help a bit :)
As far as i know, the magic line should tell zsh where to look for completions patterns. Perhaps zsh made it better and now it works. I'm not sure if this makes sense, so if anyone has some light to shed on this i'd be happy :)

[esetnik]

@davidetruffo I actually realized that the suggestions you made did not persist to a new shell. I must have had the old Apple git sourced in the old shell. I currently have everything setup the same and can't get git flow completions with the previous solution.

[davidetruffo]

@esetnik Apologies for the ridiculous late reply! Did you manage to make it work?
From my end, i can tell that it works fine now, and i removed the git-flow-completion plugin. Some details:

• Mac OS 10.11.3
• zsh 5.2 (x86_64-apple-darwin15.0.0)
• git version 2.8.2 (the brewed one)
• iTerm2 Build 2.9.20160426

[esetnik]

Unfortunately not. I can only get it working with apple git and not brewed
one.

[davidetruffo]

out of curiosity, are you using git-flow from brew as well? which version? (i have 0.4.1)

[EkkoG]

use Xcode's Git will fix this problem.

[haifengkao]

confirmed. Xcode's git version 2.7.4 (Apple Git-66) works fine.
If you use zgen, just add zgen oh-my-zsh plugins/git-flow to your .zshrc
and reset zgen by zgen reset
