Bower "Git not in the PATH" error
Install msysgit, as stated in the Bower documentation:
To use Bower on Windows, you must install msysgit correctly. Be sure to check the option shown below:
[ ] Use Git bash only
[x] Run Git from the Windows Command Prompt
[ ] Run Git and included Unix tools from the Windows Command Prompt
After the installation has completed, restart CMD. You (and bower) will then be able to run git
from the command prompt, which will fix your issue.
Make sure u installed git with 2nd or 3rd option selected from list.It will penetrate git command to cmd by modifying PATH automatically ;)
Manual method is to add the Git cmd
path to your windows PATH
environment variable. The Git cmd path will be unique on your machine, and something like:
C:\Users\<YourUserName>\AppData\Local\GitHub\PortableGit_<SomeGuid>\cmd\
From command prompt, add it to your PATH var like so:
path C:\Users\<YourUserName>\AppData\Local\GitHub\PortableGit_<SomeGuid>\cmd\;%PATH%
