qgit.app fails to find git executable

[swinbank@…]

qgit runs git --exec-path on startup to find the core git executables. Assuming git is installed through Macports, the git executable lives in /opt/local/bin. If qgit is run through the command line, and this is in $PATH, everything is fine. However, if qgit is run through /Applications/MacPorts/qgit.app, the path does not include /opt/local/bin. git --exec-path therefore fails, and gqit reports:

An error occurred while executing command:

git --exec-path

Git says:

Unable to start the process!

Understood, I will have a look.

Should be solved with ticket #16827 ("Update for qgit 2.1 -> 2.2 and solution for git not in PATH").

However, I don't know how to link the 2 tickets.

When the new version is available, please confirm that the solution works for you, thanks !
