Git not found after installing Aptana 3

I have been running git on my Mac (Mountain Lion) just fine, but after installing Aptana Studio 3, I get "git: command not found" when I try to run it from the command line now. All the files are there under /usr/local/bin/git, and I've updated my PATH in .profile to add /usr/local (/usr/local/bin is there as well), but I still get the error when I try to run git from the command line. Why would installing Aptana hose my git install, and how can I get it to work again? I know Aptana relies on git internally, but it shouldn't hose what's already there.

Thanks.

I actually already had XCode installed, so I just re-downloaded the git installer from http://git-scm.com/download/mac, reinstalled, and it works again.

Download and install XCODE (free) from the App Store. Then inside XCODE install Command Line Tools.

This will fix your issue.

Alternately you can try this:

  1. open your ~/.bash_profile, if you use textmate it would be: $ sudo mate ~/.bash_profile or if you use pico (built into OS X) you'd type $ sudo pico ~/.bash_profile

  2. add this line to the file: export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/git/bin/

  3. Save & close the file and type on the terminal: $ source ~/.bash_profile
