After installing ungit, I tried to test it with a mock folder (testungit).

I used ungit CLI, then I have got this page.

I would like to have this page to create a repository.

During this installation, I had those lines :

npm WARN engine [email protected]: wanted: {"node":"0.8.x"} (current: {"node":"v0.10.29","npm":"1.4.14"})

> [email protected] preinstall /usr/local/lib/node_modules/ungit/node_modules/getmac/node_modules/extract-opts/node_modules/typechecker
> node ./cyclic.js

npm WARN engine [email protected]: wanted: {"node":"0.8.x"} (current: {"node":"v0.10.29","npm":"1.4.14"})

Is that a problem ?

I don't know if I have to change something in .ungitrc

  • It just looks like your `testungit` directory is already initialized as a Git repository. What's the output of running `git status` on the command line in that directory? – ChrisGPT was on strike Jun 27 '14 at 17:42
  • I cannot post it, it too long ... But it seems that it is tracking all changes from my Documents folder :$ Do you think I should uninstall git and reinstall it ? – Defoncesko Jun 27 '14 at 17:48
  • Reinstalling Git likely won't make a difference. Are you deliberately tracking changes in your Documents folder, or is that an accident? – ChrisGPT was on strike Jun 27 '14 at 17:54
  • That is an accident... any ideas to solve that ? – Defoncesko Jun 27 '14 at 17:56
  • If the root is the Documents folder, you probably have a `.git` directory in that folder. That's your Git repository. Delete the `.git` directory and you should be good to go! – ChrisGPT was on strike Jun 27 '14 at 17:57
  • I do not have this file in my folder. Furthermore, I tested to create a folder in the Desktop folder. Then, I launched the ungit command when i was inside this folder(the new one). But that is the same result that in my Documents folder. – Defoncesko Jun 27 '14 at 18:04

In your testungit folder, you can type:

git rev-parse --git-dir
# or even
cd "$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel)"

If there is a git repo defined in one of the parent folders, that will give you the actual root folder of that repo (as in "Is there a way to get the git root directory in one command?").
