From: Raimund Bauer Date: Thu, 29 Mar 2007 10:21:42 GMT Subject: Problem with gitk on cygwin Message-ID: <000001c771ec$12729c30$0b0aa8c0@abf.local> When trying to use gitk from current cygwin-install, I get an error-dialog and no gitk-window. Error title: "Error in startup script" Error message: -------------------------------- .git 8 [main] git 1620 tty_list::allocate: No tty allocated while executing "exec git rev-parse --git-dir" (procedure "gitdir" line 6) invoked from within "gitdir" invoked from within "set gitdir [gitdir]" (file "/usr/bin/gitk" line 6270) -------------------------------- Setting the environment variable GIT_DIR produced a slightly different error, but didn't help. The new error message is: -------------------------------- 6 [main] git 1268 tty_list::allocate: No tty allocated while executing "close $refd" (procedure "readrefs" line 47) invoked from within "readrefs" (file "/usr/bin/gitk" line 6325) -------------------------------- Did I forget to install some cygwin package (and it's only a problem of cygwin dependencies), or does gitk on cygwin have a problem currently? -- best regards Ray
