installation process doesn't work
Your installation instructions do not work.
After installing via winget on Windows, the application is inaccessible. Your instructions say to run it from Terminal or Run dialog first to get it to register to Windows Start Menu. This cannot work. Your installer never registers the path to the PATH var to make the executable findable. See the path vars below:
User path:
System path:
Remember, the winget installer installs your app to C:\Users\rjamd\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WinGet\Packages\sourcegit-scm.SourceGit_Microsoft.Winget.Source_8wekyb3d8bbwe\SourceGit and this is a user-specific folder, so sourcegit is counting on the user PATH variable to contain its path.
I don't know why your winget doesn't automatically modify the environment variables. My local test works fine.
OS: Windows 11 24H2 (26100.6725) WinGet: v1.11.510
I'm very sorry, but I only have a Chinese environment locally. The meaning of the two lines displayed in yellow is:
- PATH environment variable has been modified. Restart shell to use the new value.
- Add a new cli command alias:
SourceGit
Please install this app from Scoop or download it from GitHub Release. I have decided to no longer maintain the SourceGit updates on https://github.com/microsoft/winget-pkgs.
