Description

Appcelerator Studio 4.1.0 - free commercial edition, http://web.appcelerator.com/product/studio Aptana Studio 3.6.1 - open source edition, http://www.aptana.com/products/studio3/download.html on Win8 fail to install, if there is already a Git installed, it breaks with the error message "MSYSGIT mandatory prerequisite was not correctly installed". Especially it doesn´t help to "abort" the GIT installation process by pressing the abort button :-( I would like to see an option, to avoid the installation of the bundled Git, and instead look if there is a Git already installed ! Sincerely Rolf

    Hi [~hemmerling], Thanks for your concern . Please try this step: Create a shortcut for the actual git installation directory to the folder C:\Program Files i.e. C:\Program Files\Git (where Git is a shortcut) It looks like there are hardcoded paths in the setup program. let me know if you have any concern Thanks
