Sublime Text plugin: git

Git integration: it's pretty handy. Who knew, right?

For more information about what's supported, and how to install this, check the wiki.

Installation

By Package Control

1. Download & Install Sublime Text 3 (https://www.sublimetext.com/3)
2. Go to the menu Tools -> Install Package Control, then, wait few seconds until the installation finishes up
3. Now, Go to the menu Preferences -> Package Control
4. Type Add Channel on the opened quick panel and press Enter
5. Then, input the following address and press Enter

   https://raw.githubusercontent.com/evandrocoan/StudioChannel/master/channel.json
   

6. Go to the menu Tools -> Command Palette... (Ctrl+Shift+P)
7. Type Preferences: Package Control Settings – User on the opened quick panel and press Enter
8. Then, find the following setting on your Package Control.sublime-settings file:

   "channels":
   [
       "https://packagecontrol.io/channel_v3.json",
       "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/evandrocoan/StudioChannel/master/channel.json",
   ],

9. And, change it to the following, i.e., put the https://raw.githubusercontent... line as first:

   "channels":
   [
       "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/evandrocoan/StudioChannel/master/channel.json",
       "https://packagecontrol.io/channel_v3.json",
   ],

   • The https://raw.githubusercontent... line must to be added before the https://packagecontrol.io... one, otherwise, you will not install this forked version of the package, but the original available on the Package Control default channel https://packagecontrol.io...
10. Now, go to the menu Preferences -> Package Control
11. Type Install Package on the opened quick panel and press Enter
12. Then, search for Git and press Enter

The rest

If you don't want to use Package Control, check the wiki for other installation methods on various platforms.

Troubleshooting

This package works by running commands as your system git. As such, if you have problems with this package, first make sure that git is installed and configured correctly on your system.

You may want to make sure that the git binary this plugin is using is the correct one, if you have multiple ones installed. Most git installation guides will be happy to walk you through configuring your system $PATH appropriately.

If necessary, set the git_command plugin preference to tell us where to look.

fatal: unable to auto-detect email address

Git isn't configured properly. Tell it who you are, by opening a command prompt and doing this:

git config --global user.email "you@example.com"
git config --global user.name "Your Name"

If you've done this and it's still complaining, you probably have multiple copies of git on your system which have different configuration locations, and the one which runs on your command line isn't the one which the shell $PATH exposes to Sublime Text.

fatal: could not read Username for 'https://github.com': Device not configured

Git isn't configured to use a system-level ssh-agent, and so it's asking you for a username and password when you try to push / pull. The plugin doesn't know how to ask you for this information.

Set up a ssh-agent and this will stop happening.
