Rob probably installed his Git from Fink. I've installed mine using MacPorts. Here's the recipe in case you're interested: --- MacPorts needs Xcode because it installs applications from the source. So make sure Xcode is installed first. Because it compiles applications from source it can take a bit. Then grab the Mac OS X Package Installer from http://www.macports.org/install.php and follow the installation instructions on that page. Once that's done you can install git with the following command: $ sudo port -v install git-core Because Git uses Ssh, MacPorts also installed its own Ssh version which unfortunately was buggy. If this happens to you, delete (or rename) scp, slogin and ssh in /opt/local/bin. --- The part about ssh may be why you had stability problems with Git. As far as I can tell my workaround works just fine. -- Francois Gouget <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://fgouget.free.fr/ La terre est une b
