On Windows: where git On Linux & Mac: which git For me, I have three directories:Ĭ:\Users\tn9k4\AppData\Local\Programs\Git\mingw64\bin\git.exeĬ:\Users\tn9k4\AppData\Local\Programs\Git\cmd\git.exe Hence, a manual modification is required to fix this hiccup.įirst, we have to come back to the basics.

In my Global Options, my Git executable and SSH RSA key are working well.And my terminal inside Rstudio looks like a normal Window Terminal (not like that of Git Terminal).I successfully cloned a repo from GitHub, but the tab would not appear.I’ve tried to reinstall Git, Rstudio, and reset the Rstudio settings.T he Git tab in Rstudio is missing in Rstudio on Windows computers. I can still manually push, pull, and do various things with GitHub, but only via manually coding. This change disrupts my configuration between GitHub and Rstudio. Hence, my default home directory was changed from C:\Users\tn9k4\Documents\ to C:\Users\tn9k4\OneDrive - University of Missouri\Documents. For example, my organization recently implemented an org-wide integration with OneDrive.

Hence, your home default directory might be changed and cause unintended consequences (e.g., disintegration between GitHub and Rstudio). Moreover, another movement is where organizations only use cloud storage (e.g., Dropbox, Box, OneDrive) instead of purchasing physical hard drives.

Or else, when being asked for admin privileges, your username and password will not suffice. Hence, before installing programs on your computer, you will always need to run this app first. But it seems unstoppable now (i.e., an industry-wide adoption). This movement can seriously hinder the working process and speed. Hence, if members want to use this function, they typically have to apply for permission to use the “Make Me Admin” app, which grants administrator rights for 15 minutes. Due to a new movement in the tech industry, organizations (e.g., companies or universities) will not allow their members to have complete control of their machines (i.e., administrative privileges or running programs as administrators).
