Startup warning

[ycecube]

Hi!

I've installed the latest version of cmder (1.2.9) and now I'm getting this warning message:

WARNING: posh-git requires Git 1.7.2 or better. You have .

If I start the PowerShell the posh-git works OK (no error message), but in cmder I don't get the nicely formatted status in the git directory as in PowerShell.

Running the git --version command in cmder outputs the following: git version 2.7.0.windows.1

What am I missing?

Where have you installed cmder?

[ycecube]

C:\cmder

And the posh-git module is here: C:\Users\yce\Documents\WindowsPowerShell\Modules\posh-git

[MartiUK]

Try putting it on your desktop/user dir, permissions can mess things up

[ycecube]

It's still the same, even when I run the cmder as administrator.

I have the exact same problem on Windows 7, PowerShell 4.

[MartiUK]

Run this: (git --version) -match '(?<ver>\d+(?:\.\d+)+)'
I've taken it directly from the posh-git checkversion script.

Does it return True?
If so you may have an older version of posh-git already installed, try reinstalling it with:
Update-Module posh-git

If False let me know what git --version returns.

[Saturate]

It returns True.

Updating gives me this:

λ Update-Module posh-git
Module posh-git was successfully updated.
WARNING: posh-git requires Git 1.7.2 or better. You have .

So no luck :-(

Also ran a Get-PsGetModuleInfo Posh-git that gave me this:

Title             : posh-git
ModuleName        : posh-git
Id                : posh-git

After I've reinstalled windows the problem has gone :)

Bit of an extreme fix but ok. Sounded like the path git was found at wasn't the version either your or cmder were expecting.
