After setting up environmental variables, errors still occur. git 2.4.4 with all extras selected [unix tools etc] errors out in visual studio code. When trying to clone a repository. > git clone https://github.com/Chaython/simplewall.git c:\Users\Chay\Git\simplewall --progress git: 'remote-https' is not a git command. See 'git --help'. I've tried changing installation settings... Installing from winget... Installing from chocolatey and obviously manually installing the x64 executable. Each time trying BCU/Geek to properly uninstall all leftovers. I normally clone using github client, however I thought it would both be more convenient to use visual studio and github client didn't automatically import .gitmodules so I could compile the application.... ``` ## Eric Sunshine, 2024-02-26 18:12 Subject: Re: Git For Windows, not installing right Message-ID: URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/CAPig%2BcTtcJMukv%3DcyR0owZkDbOK2heA3WBS_Xq-PFyQfhXjYaA%40mail.gmail.com In-Reply-To: ``` On Mon, Feb 26, 2024 at 4:39 AM Chaython Meredith wrote: > Git for windows, is not setting environmental variables, despite being asked to during installation. > After setting up environmental variables, errors still occur. Git-for-Windows and the Git-for-Windows installer are maintained and produced by gitforwindows.org which has a dedicated bug tracker[*] for Windows-specific issues. Submitting this report to the Git-for-Windows bug tracker will likely lead to a more timely response. [*] https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues ```
