Not working after upgrading to El Capitan OSX 10.11

davidetruffo opened this issue 9 years ago · 34 comments

I just upgraded my OSX and the autocomplete just doesn't work anymore (i hit tab, and i get a list of files in that folder, but not the git-flow commands)

any hint?

Answer 1 · 2015-10-20T16:42:09.000Z

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?

Answer 2 · 2015-10-20T17:45:46.000Z

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

Answer 3 · 2015-10-21T05:16:43.000Z

Also doesn't work here.

zsh 5.1.1 (x86_64-apple-darwin15.0.0)

git-flow and zsh installed by homebrew

git and many other tab-completions still work

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.

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

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

Hi @bobthecow,
any news on this? :)

Answer 11 · 2015-11-22T17:23:42.000Z

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?

Answer 12 · 2015-11-22T18:05:20.000Z

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?

Answer 14 · 2015-11-24T13:14:33.000Z

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

Answer 15 · 2015-11-25T08:33:30.000Z

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

Answer 16 · 2015-11-26T06:36:37.000Z

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

Answer 18 · 2015-12-25T09:47:49.000Z

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

Answer 19 · 2015-12-25T09:49:38.000Z

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

Answer 20 · 2016-03-07T18:31:44.000Z

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.

Answer 21 · 2016-03-10T15:19:21.000Z

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

Answer 22 · 2016-03-10T15:39:45.000Z

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 :)

Answer 23 · 2016-03-10T16:01:56.000Z

@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.

Answer 24 · 2016-03-10T16:32:46.000Z

@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? :)

Answer 25 · 2016-03-11T00:00:16.000Z

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

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.
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.

Answer 26 · 2016-03-11T08:50:52.000Z

@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 :)

Answer 27 · 2016-03-13T17:22:40.000Z

@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.

Answer 28 · 2016-05-13T11:14:22.000Z

@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

Answer 29 · 2016-05-13T12:56:25.000Z

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

Answer 30 · 2016-05-13T15:07:30.000Z

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

Answer 31 · 2016-10-15T03:07:22.000Z

Not working on osSierra either 😢

Answer 32 · 2016-10-15T03:46:00.000Z

use Xcode's Git will fix this problem.

Answer 33 · 2016-11-02T10:26:05.000Z

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

Answer 34 · 2017-07-13T14:00:12.000Z

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

brew uninstall git
brew install git --without-completions
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)
