I have integrated the git version control to an existing project in Rstudio(Windows). After that for every change I make in the Rmd file, a pop up is coming. I could see that it is a git bash executing on every command I have added in the file. I do not have more details on this.
Actually solved it myself just now with the help of this info:
https://stat545-ubc.github.io/git03_rstudio-meet-git.html
WARNING: On Windows, do NOT use C:/Program Files (x86)/Git/cmd/git.exe. The difference between the good and bad paths is bin vs. cmd.
My Rstudio-version was setting the cmd/git.exe as default.
If you change that to bin/git.exe my problem was solved...

I'm trying to execute a .zsh script on Macos big sur and it's not letting me.
Whenever I run the .zsh in terminal, it says "/bin/zsh: can't open input file: file-name.zsh"
I already did brew install zsh prior to this so I'm a bit confused.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
In macOS Transparency Consent and Control (TCC) restricts access to "personal" data, including anything in a user's Desktop folder and outputs a /bin/zsh: can't open input file error message if you try to disobey this rule. Try moving file-name.zsh to a different folder, and if moving file-name.zsh to another folder doesn't help refer to file-name.zsh by using the full path to file-name.zsh.
Figured it out for ZSH on Mac! To get scripts to run from any relative directory, you can first append the rest of the path to the front of the script name and then run as usual:
BASEDIR=$(dirname "$0")
echo "Script location: ${BASEDIR}"
cd "$(dirname "$0")"
$BASEDIR/<script_name>.command
This is currently working for me on macOS Monterey.

I'm trying to run R from iTerm on an OSX computer (OSX 10.11.6). When I enter R, it opens up an older version of R, from the path /Users/***/miniconda2/bin/R. I would like it to run, by default, an R version found at /usr/local/bin/R, without having to enter the full path every time. How would one go about changing the location of the default R?
Thanks for your help
This is likely due to the PATH variable preferring ~/miniconda2/bin before /usr/local/bin. I'm giving you a few options here to help understand why it is happening.
Let's assume your PATH looks like this:
/Users/me/bin:/Users/me/miniconda2/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin
Modify PATH
You could modify PATH to move /Users/me/miniconda2/bin after /usr/local/bin or remove it from PATH completely. The downside is that if you rely on other binaries in ~/miniconda2/bin they will no longer be found when executing them by name.
Move R out of the way
Another option would be to move ~/miniconda/bin/R out of the way, for example using
mv ~/miniconda/bin/R ~/miniconda/bin/R-miniconda
Afterwards R will be run from the next location in $PATH, but if you update miniconda2 it may return.
Link to R further up in the PATH (easiest/best)
Finally, you could make sure that there is an R executable in something that is further up the $PATH. This is probably the easiest and most effective option.
First, make sure you have a bin folder in your home directory. If this is not the case, create it using mkdir ~/bin and then restart the terminal. The restart should cause the code in ~/.profile to add that folder to your $PATH. You can verify by doing echo $PATH. If this is not the case, add the following line to your ~/.profile or ~/.bash_profile:
export PATH=$HOME/bin:$PATH
In the example at the top, the PATH already contains /Users/me/bin at the beginning of the line (highest priority).
Next, create a soft link to the R binary in the newly created folder:
ln -s /usr/local/bin/R ~/bin/R
You should now be able to execute R, which will prefer the softlink created, which will execute the one you like. If it does not work right away execute hash -r or restart the terminal.
Just in case you happen to be using RStudio Server (open source) or someone is looking for how to change the RStudio Server default version of R, here is what I found when trying to answer the same question:
Starting in RStudio Server 1.3 (the newest version is 1.4.1106, released February 22, 2021), a user’s preferred version of R can be specified in the rstudio-prefs.json file in the global-level /etc/rstudio folder or in the user-level ~/.config/rstudio folder.
See https://blog.rstudio.com/2020/02/18/rstudio-1-3-preview-configuration/ and https://docs.rstudio.com/ide/server-pro/session-user-settings.html for user setting options in newer versions of RStudio Server.
See https://support.rstudio.com/hc/en-us/articles/200716783-RStudio-Release-History for RStudio release history and https://www.rstudio.com/products/rstudio/download-server/redhat-centos/ for Red Hat downloads of the newest version of RStudio Server.
I'm trying to put a project under version control in R-Studio. I have installed git and everything is working from the git bash command-line. However, when I go to Tools >> Version Control in R-Studio, it says "None" under "Version Control System."
I have attached a screenshot here: http://i.imgur.com/Arc12GG.png
Does anybody know how to fix this?
Even after setting the path to the git executable on my Mac at "Macintosh HD/usr/bin", RStudio still showed "None" for the version control option. In Terminal, I entered "config git" and was greeted by the message that I had to agree to the new Xcode/iOS license. I was able to do that in Terminal by typing "sudo xcodebuild", entering my admin password, then scrolling to the end of the agreement text and entering "agree". Then git showed up as an option for version control. I mention this in case others are stymied even after setting the path to the git executable.
For Windows 10 users, even if you had git lovingly installed at:
C:/Program Files (x86)/Git/bin/git.exe
At some stage the update install moves it into your AppData directory. Thanks Redmond. (I think around Git 2.6.4)
TO FIX:
Make sure like #arvi1000 says above "Did you specify the path to the git executable in Global Options (not project options)? " - set path first in Global options in Rstudio under Tools
Change path under Git/SVN the Git Executable path from Program files to new location of git.exe now in Appdata. e.g. for my userprofile Info:
C:\Users[Your user profile "Info"]\AppData\Local\Programs\Git\bin
Now look in RStudio Project Options under Git/SVN to set Version Control System.
MORE HELP
See these answers in this thread for more and if you cannot find git.exe this is a helpful search tip.
On windows after running the grunt build command for creating brackets shell it gives done without errors but i dont see any .exe file generated..
What might be the problem???
Here are some possible solutions:
Are you following the full brackets-shell build instructions, including all prerequisites?
Make sure Brackets isn't running at the same time. The build will fail silently if the .exe file is currently in use (see bug).
Try with a fresh git clone of the repo. If your brackets-shell local copy has been around for a while, sometimes the build & deps folders can get in a bad state. (I'm assuming you haven't modified the source at all. If you have, try with an unmodified copy of the source first to make sure it builds correctly without any of your changes).
Check that python --version shows 2.7.x
Verbose build output would also be helpful in diagnosing issues like this, but unfortunately there's not yet an easy way to get that...
If you follow the instructions on bracket-shell's wiki page, the Windows executable should be created in the Release directory.
I have an install.bat file and a resource folder. so long as these two files are in the same directory, if you run install.bat, it will install a my lwjgl game. so what im trying to do is make a self extracting file that when completed runs the launch.bat file. I have tried using iexpress, and got it working for the most part. i have added in all my files and such so it will extract to some directory and then i can run the install.bat file to get my program to work. thing is though, i want the exe i created with iexpress to launch install.bat when its finished. so, i tried using the option in iexpress that says it will execute a command when finished the "installation" (using quotes because its not the actual installation, just extracting the files to some directory specified by the user). when i get to the step where it says what i would like to execute during and after the "installation". during the installation i left blank. after the installation i chose the install.bat file. when i try to click next though, it tells me i must choose something for the command during the extraction. I don't have anything specific to do during the installation so i just said "echo." (without quotes). after i was done i tried running the installer. before it even prompted me for a folder to extract to, it told me that echo. could not be executed. so i went back into my installation (via a .sed file) and changed the "echo." to "pause". that didn't work either. i then read on another website that in order to run a file the way i would like to, i put the file name in both the during and after installation boxes. i tried doing that and it didn't work either. can anyone please help me?
If I understood your question correctly you will need to specify what the iexpress must do at the post install command option provided so that cmd.exe is used instead of command.com, eg:
cmd.exe /c filethatyouwanttorun.bat
Refer to the question: Create Batch file for iexpress.
You can use the SED file and then modify the self extraction directive. This will run the batch file that you wanted to run and then install the application. (If you have chosen the option to extract and run an installation in iexpress, a temp folder will be used for the extraction I suppose.)
I'm not sure I understand your question exactly but perhaps a few points would help:
If you want a "do nothing" command, you can use something like:
cmd /c echo.
There is no "command during the extraction". There's only an install program and a post install command. Both of these execute after extraction. If you only need to execute one batch file, put it in the install program line and leave the post install command blank.
You can't ask the user for an extraction path and execute a file. You can only do one or the other. (The install program could prompt the user and copy the files there, though.)
