Git not found in Mountain Lion
I recently updated OS X Lion to OS X Mountain Lion on all my personal computers. The installation was smooth, but afterwards some things did not work as expected. For instance, git was no longer found.
After upgrading, git was simply not a recognized command in the Terminal any more.
Downloading and installing git from the git website didn’t help either.
I finally solved it by re-installing git with Xcode:
- Start Xcode
- In the main menu, select
XCode > Preferences - Select the Downloads tab
- Install Command Line Tools
Once the installation is done, git will once again be available in the Terminal.
