Thanks a lot, Derrick!

"ls -al ~/Library" showed that "~/Library/LaunchAgents/" was owned by root user. Then I changed the owner of the "~/Library/LaunchAgents/" to my user. After that, "scalar register" successfully worked.

Thanks, -Albert

Thanks for the report, Albert!

I suspect that you get the same problem with "git maintenance start" which is the underlying command that "scalar register" is running at this point of failure.

The "~/Library/LaunchAgents/" should be owned by your user, allowing this to work without needing to "sudo". However, if your permissions on that directory have changed, then the "sudo" will be necessary. Could you double-check your permissions by running "ls -al ~/Library"?

Thanks, -Stolee
