#44052: git-core: obsolete, but asked for when fetching the sources via git ----------------------+-------------------------------- Reporter: mojca@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: base | Version: 2.3.0 Resolution: | Keywords: snowleopard Port: | ----------------------+-------------------------------- Comment (by ryandesign@…): Replying to [comment:1 ciserlohn@…]:
Xcode > 4 has a bundled version of git so this only affects snow leopard with Xcode 3.2.6 (as installed on our buildbots).
And as on most Snow Leopard users' machines, since Xcode 4 on Snow Leopard has never been free. This also affect Leopard and Tiger users. But it does not affect users who already installed git.
A possible workaround would be to add (not tested yet): {{{ platform darwin 10 { depends_fetch-delete port:git-core depends_fetch-append port:git } }}} to every port with {{{fetch.type git}}} until 2.3.1 is released.
In these situations, the `-replace` modifier is more convenient than using both `-delete` and `-append`. Replying to [comment:2 mojca@…]:
I would prefer to see 2.3.1 released sometime soon rather than patching a huge number of ports just to revert the changes later.
Agreed. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/44052#comment:6> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
