Thanks. I believe there are no options of stat or readlink that are the same between linux and mac os X :( I like Unix portability ;) Thierry 2015-07-09 14:29 GMT+02:00 Christophe Demarey <Christophe.Demarey@inria.fr>:
The man page lists available options on OS X:
STAT(1) BSD General Commands Manual STAT(1)
NAME readlink, stat -- display file status
SYNOPSIS stat [-FLnq] [-f format | -l | -r | -s | -x] [-t timefmt] [file ...] readlink [-n] [file ...]
DESCRIPTION The stat utility displays information about the file pointed to by file. Read, write or execute permissions of the named file are not required, but all directories listed in the path name leading to the file must be searchable. If no argument is given, stat displays information about the file descriptor for standard input.
When invoked as readlink, only the target of the symbolic link is printed. If the given argument is not a symbolic link, readlink will print nothing and exit with an error.
The information displayed is obtained by calling lstat(2) with the given argument and evaluating the returned structure.
The options are as follows:
-F As in ls(1), display a slash (`/') immediately after each path- name that is a directory, an asterisk (`*') after each that is executable, an at sign (`@') after each symbolic link, a percent sign (`%') after each whiteout, an equal sign (`=') after each socket, and a vertical bar (`|') after each that is a FIFO. The use of -F implies -l.
-f format Display information using the specified format. See the FORMATS section for a description of valid formats.
-L Use stat(2) instead of lstat(2). The information reported by stat will refer to the target of file, if file is a symbolic link, and not to file itself.
-l Display output in ls -lT format.
-n Do not force a newline to appear at the end of each piece of out- put.
-q Suppress failure messages if calls to stat(2) or lstat(2) fail. When run as readlink, error messages are automatically sup- pressed.
-r Display raw information. That is, for all the fields in the stat structure, display the raw, numerical value (for example, times in seconds since the epoch, etc.).
-s Display information in ``shell output'', suitable for initializ- ing variables.
-t timefmt Display timestamps using the specified format. This format is passed directly to strftime(3).
-x Display information in a more verbose way as known from some Linux distributions.

Thanks, this helps!
I have updated the merge driver with a corrected merge script, which should work for you if you want to update.

Alexandre, if you had the time, could you give me the output of
readlink --help

Thanks Thierry. Seems to work. But I get this error:
~/HackathonSattose2015> git merge master readlink: illegal option -- e usage: readlink [-n] [file ...] readlink: illegal option -- e usage: readlink [-n] [file ...] readlink: illegal option -- e usage: readlink [-n] [file â¦]
Can you edit the merge file (~/Dropbox/Workspace/GitFileTree-MergeDriver/merge) and change that line:
DIR=`readlink -e "$0"` || DIR="$0";
to:
DIR=`readlink "$0"` || DIR="$0";
(I would have expected this to work as well on a mac... but it isn't the case :(:( The -e option is there to try to see through symlinks. I'll correct that.)
Thierry
Any idea?

Thierry,
$ git config --get merge.mcVersion.driver
~/HackathonSattose2015> git config --get merge.mcVersion.driver pathToGitFileTree-MergeDriver/merge --version %O %A %B
Any idea how I can merge then? Is this value what you expected?
No.
If you have your path for the merge command (something like /User/Alexandre/GitFileTree-MergeDriver/merge ), then it should be:
~/HackathonSattose2015> git config --get merge.mcVersion.driver /User/Alexandre/GitFileTree-MergeDriver/merge --version %O %A %B
To correct it, what you can do by hand is:
git config --global merge.mcVersion.driver "/User/Alexandre/GitFileTree-MergeDriver/merge --version %O %A %B" git config --global merge.mcMethodProperties.driver "/User/Alexandre/GitFileTree-MergeDriver/merge --methodProperties %O %A %B" git config --global merge.mcProperties.driver "/User/Alexandre/GitFileTree-MergeDriver/merge --properties %O %A %B"
Don't forget to update the path !
Thierry
