Hi Graham,

I am running git inside a Cygwin shell.  I didn't notice any issues wth line-endings.

So are you using Cygwin git or Windows git? 

$ git --version

git version 1.9.0.msysgit.0

I think this is Windows git?

I cannot run git-review even to print the version.  I did manually delete the entries for git-review in the scripts and lib folders and reinstalled, but still see the following error:

$ git-review --version

Traceback (most recent call last):

I don't understand egg files.  At git_review\gmd.py:180 it is doing:

    provider = pkg_resources.get_provider(requirement)

The .egg file does exist, I don't know what goes wrong inside it.

Could the issue be running Windows Python and Windows git-review in the Cygwin shell (possibly with Cygwin git)?

I use Windows git for all my git\Gerrit work along with Windows Python in a PowerShell, er, shell.

Can you try running `C:\Python27\Scripts\git-review --version` in a Windows Command Prompt or PowerShell?

Running in a Windows Command Prompt gives me the same stack trace as above. 

 

An egg is a Python application distribution unit, similar to a java .jar file.  See http://peak.telecommunity.com/DevCenter/PythonEggs

I am finding that I can push from my master branch, which I'd rather not do, but that I need to do 'git rebase' every time now.

When I create another topic branch from master, I cannot push from it, even after rebasing.

I really don't know what I did to my setup, as git-review used to work.  I have taken to writing scripts in python now, and did try to get python3 installed a while back, though it would crash upon startup.  I just tried uninstalling python3 but it doesn't seem to have helped.

Thanks,

Martin
