Tips

ssh-agent

Errors with ssh-agent:

Error connecting to agent: No such file or directory

Add zstyle :omz:plugins:ssh-agent agent-forwarding on

Errors with /usr/local/bin/gpg not in the $PATH

fatal: cannot run /usr/local/bin/gpg: No such file or directory
error: gpg failed to sign the data
fatal: failed to write commit object

It might be that Homebrew's version of gpg needs the symlink overwritten.

brew link --overwrite gnupg

error: gpg failed to sign the data
fatal: failed to write commit object

Try:

gpgconf --kil gpg-agent

vimrc

  File "/Users/<user>/.vim_runtime/update_plugins.py", line 13, in <module>
    import requests
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'requests'

Try:

pip3 install requests
