Mono version: 4.8.0:
OS: QNAP 4.3.3
General question really, what files places can I look for what the installation thinks ‘git’ is installed.
Not an issue, but an annoyance that I’m having to hold onto an outdated git install as well as a more current one on my QNAP, so wondered if there’s some config item that I could just re-point.
Sonarr doesn’t use git. We use it for development (our source is on github after all), but Sonarr itself doesn’t.
So the auto-updater doesn’t rely on having git installed?
Nope. Sonarr needs to be compiled before it is run, you can’t simply git pull the repo and have it work.
I get that, I was wondering how ‘update’ works in that is it aware to know to use git for the pull & where to look for it (before compiling), though judging by your response, it does not, it just presumes your operating system does.
We build all the binaries on our build server and the update client downloads the archive with the compiled build and extracts it, git is not involved. Nothing is compiled on your machine either.
That clarifies it all for me, thanks Markus.
