I've got it working to the point where it passes \"make test\" \nnow. All I had to do was install coreutils and findutils from \ndarwinports, and then make gcp, gstat and gnuxargs available under their \nstandard names.\n\nDo the BSD's or Solaris have the same problem? Last time I used them \nthey didn't have the gnu options available on their standard utils, but \nthat was ages ago. If current BSD's have the problem, it might be worth \nexpending some effort to make cogito more portable. If it's only OS X...\n\nBryan\n"},{"id":"5890","messageId":"20050710142916.GA24249@pasky.ji.cz","threadId":"1178","inReplyTo":"42CF0D9F.8040909@gmail.com","subject":"Re: cogito Mac OS X compatibility","fromName":"Petr Baudis","fromEmail":"pasky@suse.cz","sentAt":"2005-07-10T14:29:16Z","receivedAt":"2005-07-10T14:29:16Z","isPatch":false,"sender":{"key":"pasky@ucw.cz","avatar":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/18439?v=4"},"body":"Dear diary, on Sat, Jul 09, 2005 at 01:34:55AM CEST, I got a letter\nwhere Bryan Larsen told me that...\n> On Mac OS X\n> \n> $ cg-clone http://www.kernel.org/pub/scm/cogito/cogito.git\n> defaulting to local storage area\n> 19:11:10 \n> URL:http://www.kernel.org/pub/scm/cogito/cogito.git/refs/heads/master \n> [41/41] -> \"refs/heads/origin\" [1]\n> /Users/blarsen/bin/cg-pull: line 82: 0 + : syntax error: operand \n> expected (error token is \" \")\n> cg-pull: objects pull failed\n> cg-init: pull failed\n\nThat's strange. I assume you don't have the stat utility, but that\nshouldn't matter - Cogito has own stat stub to use in those cases. Could\nyou please put some debugging stuff into stat() in cg-Xlib to see what's\ngoing on? (Beware, cg-pull calls it with 2>/dev/null.)
