[SOLVED] diff commands do not respond

Added by Frank Church over 6 years ago

I am having a problem in my Redmine installations where the diff command doesn't return. When I check the log this is what I see. It doesn't return at all.

How can I see what is happening further down the line and find out whether something is being returned at all?

Started GET "/redmine/projects/house-install-scripts/repository/diff?utf8=%E2%9C%93&rev=aeeaee0c27230e055

I tracked it down to an override in my environment variables where I overrode the program used by `git diff`.

  1. environment variables
    GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF=$HOME/bin/ssdiff.sh
    export GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF

After commenting those lines out it works okay.

Which leads me to knowing how to override enviroment settings in a rails application.
