Hello lists,
I installed GeanyVC on Geany 1.23.1, Win 7. I can operate git on my directory fine outside of Geany, but everything is greyed out in Geany. Could you please advise?
Also, in my directory there is a "geany_run_script.bat" file. Should I add it to .gitignore?
Thank you very much! - Anh

Well, I depends on your style of work. But this file doesn't need to be version controlled I can ensure ;)

For some reasons the plugin is not able to find either your .git file or git itself. Is your PATH set correct in registry? Is there maybe any output on Debug? Check Help->Debug-Messages for this. MAybe ....

Hi Frank,
There is no relevant output on Debug message (except that GeanyVC is loaded at start).
I can git init anywhere, so I presume that means my PATH does include git. Or maybe you mean that PATH needs to include something else as well?
Best, - A

Anh,
Have you clicked ‘Add to revision control’ within Geany first (even if you have already added files from the command line?) That was what I had to do.
James
Hi James,
That's greyed out too. There is nothing within Version Control that I can click.

Anh,
Just a second, is this a new, completely unchecked-into-git project?
I had to create the repository and make an initial commit from the command line before Geany would make the VC menu available.

James,
This is a working directory that I have been making commits on before (there is a .git folder in it). I open one file from this directory in Geany but the GeanyVC remains greyed out.

OK, interesting. Here’s some results of my quick test:
Completely new folder with no git-ification at all: everything greyed out.
Same folder after git init and git commit -a: everything appears. Seems to be working fine here.
Silly question: I’m sure the answer is yes, but you have clicked ‘Enable Git’ in the GeanyVC plugin preferences window, right?
Best of luck,
James

I tried to create a new folder to test, but still everything is grey despite my being able to git init, add, commit outside...
And yes, I did check enable git.
Thanks for all your help though! - Anh

I’m guessing now, but maybe try removing ~/.config/geany/plugins/VC and starting afresh? A lot of mysterious problems can be traced to junk config or cache files in your home directory.
Not sure what else to suggest.

This part of GeanyVC is uncached.

I tried GeanyVC on my Ubuntu today and it worked fine -- someone it's just on Win 7 that it's acting out even after I re-install Geany plugins.

Well... let's say it like this: I was not developed under Windows and only quiet roughly tested there. Reasons should be well known.

Are you using msysgit for window? If so it comes with own UNIX-like shell and stuff so it still may not be in PATH lookup variable. If you can open the normal "Command Prompt" through `All Programs->Accessories->Command Prompt` (or so) and type `git --version` there you should see if it works.

Sir Matthew! I'd bake you cookies. It was indeed because I was using msysgit.
My apology for this long-winded inquiry to the list. Thank you all for your patience.
