Steps to reproduce
- Download the (at the time of writing) recent Obsidian snap package.
- Install the snap – btw, are there any installation instructions or are users supposed to know about
--dangerous
? – as follows:snap install --dangerous obsidian_0.15.6_amd64.snap
- start Obsidian and select a vault on which you initialize a git repository, if not done already so, using
git init
- Install the community plugin “Obsidian Git”.
- open the Obsidian Git sidebar view by pressing Ctrl-P and entering “Obsidian Git: Open source control view”
- nothing will be shown, even if files have been changed. In particular, the icon buttons for commit, etc. will be missing.
- Strg-Shift-I to look at the console error message that show that git cannot be found/executed.
Expected result
The Obsidian Git community plugin to be able to execute the host’s git command in the same way as it can when installing and using the Obsidian AppImage.
Actual result
Nothing, nada; except for a console error message.
