What steps will reproduce the problem?
build git-annex and run tests on darwin
What version of git-annex are you using? On what operating system?
10.20231129
This error message seems to indicate that git-annex tried to run a program named "security", which does not exist.
I can reproduce the error message like so:
Since git-annex definitely does not normally try to run a program named "security" -- it doesn't even contain any String with that value -- I am puzzled by what could be causing it to do so. My best guess is something in your git configuration might be set. For example:
Which well, rules out that particular git config, but there are several git configs that specify a command to run, so some other one.
However, the test suite also runs with
GIT_CONFIG_NOSYSTEMset, so git won't read the system gitconfig file, and it also sets HOME to a temp directory to avoid reading~/.gitconfig. So normally even such a git config setting should not affect the test suite.addurltest failing while building on MacOS withnix-shell -p git-annex. I recorded a video of it coincidentally. I don't know what's with thesecurityprogram it tries to call. I was using a MacOS VM via Docker-OSX.
