Attempting to install with:

nbstripout --install --attributes .gitattributes

gives the following error:

Installation failed: git is not on path!

even though git is installed and is functioning fine.

Which version of nbstripout are you using? Which platform?

Answer 2 · 2021-06-23T11:06:48.000Z

Same here.

Linux zeno 5.4.123-1-MANJARO
git version 2.31.1
nbstripout==0.4.0

Btw, I'm using pipenv. Not working with pipenv run nbstripout --install … nor pipenv shell

Answer 4 · 2021-06-24T08:19:16.000Z

I'm using a conda environment on macOS 11.4
git version 2.32.0
nbstripout==0.4.0

Thanks for reporting, I can reproduce the issue. I'll release a fix in 0.5.0. Meanwhile, as a workaround please use

nbstripout --install --attributes $PWD/.gitattributes
