Как удалить git версии 1.6.5.1 из Mac OS X 10.5.8?

Если which git возвращает /usr / local/git / bin/git, как указал Джимми,
должен делать трюк
недавно мне пришлось обновить с 1.9.3 до 2.2.1 на Mac OSX 10.10.1
Я успешно запустил установщик для 2.2.1, но командная строка «git —version» все еще показывала 1.9.3.
оказывается, 2.2.1 был успешно установлен в /usr/local/git / bin и каталог был добавлен в мой путь. Однако 1.9.3 был установлен в /usr / bin, который появился в моей переменной пути оболочки перед /usr / local/git / bin, и поэтому вызывался до обновления версия.
Это было исправлено путем запуска » sudo rm-rf / usr/bin / git*» и перезапуска командной строки.
FYI: если вы думаете, что у Вас аналогичная проблема, вы можете найти различные версии git на своем пути, запустив «type-a git»
можно сделать which git чтобы получить путь к двоичному файлу git. Должно быть довольно ясно, где установлен материал git из этого. Я считаю, что графический установщик помещает его в /usr/local/git по умолчанию. Просто удалите этот каталог, и если вы хотите, удалите его из своего PATH переменная окружения также.
Я знаю, что этот вопрос конкретно касается git 1.x, но если вы на git 2.x, в вашем каталоге git есть сценарий удаления. В моем случае это было:
How to uninstall Git (Apple Git-75) from Mac?
I am unable to install Git from my Mac. I am running MacOS Sierra. I have tried all solutions available, but can’t seem to figure out how to install Git from my Mac.
Here is the screenshot of the version of Git installed on my Mac.

just install the latest git by brew
the new git version will replace apple git as default
There’s nothing for you to do. The git you refer to is a part of the operating system. It’s not user-installable. You do not want to un-install it.
If you want a different version, install it using e.g MacPorts or homebrew and use port select git or brew link , respectively, to choose the preferred version.
I had the exact same problem today. I wanted to use the latest git version as default instead of Apple Git. After a couple of hours, here is what helped me —
- Install latest (or whichever you want) version of git
- Make note of the location where new git binary got downloaded. In my case, it got downloaded at /usr/local/git/bin/git
Backup Apple Git binary to some location (just in case)
$ sudo cp /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin/git /tmp/git-apple
Overwrite system’s git with above downloaded git binary

Re-installing Git on Mac OSX with Brew
This is helpful if you’ve previously installed git from source on OSX, and other compilers can’t find the correct path. You need to remove the current version of git, then re-install with brew.
Uninstall git if installed manually
Check which git you’re running:
output should be similar to this: /usr/bin/git
Remove that git install
Re-install git with brew
Check which git you’re now running:
Should now say: /usr/local/bin/git

consider that for change in bin folder (which is read-only) you must disable SIP System Intergradation Protection in your mac:
1- reboot your mac
2- press and hold ⌘ R until seeing the apple’s logo
3- from recovery menu utils>Terminal
csrutil disable
reboot
now you can remove bin’s stuff
note that: after this change re-enables it using this command:
csrutil enable

I have gone through the steps you listed in this instruction set, however once I run the «sudo rm -rf /usr/bin/git/» I get the error
rm: /usr/bin/git: Operation not permitted
I am currently running MacOS Mojave v.10.14.6.
and I have Xcode installed (if that means anything).
Please advise.

Did you found out a solution for your problem?? I got the same error «Operation not permitted» and I’ve been struggling for days with this problem

Hey people! I was able to get this issue resolved. However i had to install manually (not using brew initially).
I followed the steps from the Git website to reinstall Git.
https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Getting-Started-Installing-Git
It automatically updated the git version i had on my Mac. Having XCode on my device did not effect the install. I know this may seem broad, but it worked for me!! hope this helps!
You can’t perform that action at this time.

- File > Save-as
- Put it into your Downloads folder, keep the original name (uninstall-GHfM.sh)
- Open Terminal (from Applications folder / Utilities folder)
- Put the following into Terminal:
sudo bash

It’s probably also worth checking whether some GIT environment variables have been added to your
/.bash_profile, as I found the following when I was cleaning up after the Mac client:
These were overriding any user settings in local Git config files which was very irritating. Hope this helps anyone else with this problem who came across this gist as I did!

Thanks for this. It worked great.
I will say, it’s disappointing that GitHub for Mac requires this level of user involvement for a complete uninstall. It is a free tool, so I can’t complain too much. But it was surprising to find that we have to resort to this stuff still in 2015.

It’s due to Mac system, all the apps you move to trash leave a lot of file being not deleted.

There’s something more which this script doesn’t catch, it seems:
(the 501 in the filename is the ID of my local user)
Note: Do not just delete the file. There could be GitHub-unrelated things in it.

@the-real-tokai Very true; there’s also another file there (/var/db/com.apple.xpc.launchd/disabled.501.plist) with some GitHub stuff in it. Don’t know what it actually sets, whether it lists disabled things, determines what is disabled, or something else, but there’s probably two lines about github there saying
You might want to delete those two lines. Since it’s a write-protected file, and cleaning it up doesn’t seem so necessary, I wouldn’t recommend novice users to try doing anything about it. Otherwise, you might want to try to sudo nano it (or vim or emacs or whatever).

How do I remove GIT from my system? I have Macbook Air (El Capitan), git version 2.4.9 (Apple Git-60).
The command: «which git» outputs: «/usr/bin/git». I can’t remove anything from there even with sudo, it says: «Operation not permitted». Please advise, I want to completely remove Git from my system.

Sorry for bumping an old gist, but has anyone had any luck in updating this for GitHub Desktop (the newer version of GitHub for Mac)? I haven’t tried the code but it looks like it’s fairly tied to GitHub for Mac.

Whiip it’s 2017 and we still need this script although app cleaner + sudo rm -f /usr/local/bin/github should also do the trick.

+1 for AppCleaner + sudo rm -f /usr/local/bin/github , works like a dream!
Had to do a complete clean as the app was mistaking one repo as another, no amount of cloning/cache clear outs/debugging would solve it. Might just go back to CLI only.

I installed GIT from dmg file. I’ve tried different approaches to remove GIT from my mac and reinstall with brew. Regardless, it is not successefull, after these
sudo rm -rf /usr/bin/git/
sudo rm /etc/paths.d/git
sudo rm /etc/manpaths.d/git
sudo pkgutil —forget —pkgs=GitOSX.Installer.git[A-Za-z0-9].[a-z].pkg
brew uninstall git
I still see a git on my mac ( ‘which git’ returns : /usr/bin/git).
Also, I tried to run the script from above,having these errors running the .sh file:
/Users/sgryt/Downloads/uninstall-GHfM.sh: line 1:
What else can be done to remove a GIT from my mac. ? Thank you.
