错误提示：fatal: '/usr/local/git/share/doc/git-doc': not a documentation directory.

在执行命令

git help --web log

时遇到提示

fatal: ‘/usr/local/git/share/doc/git-doc’: not a documentation directory.

解决方案：

如果您认为自己拥有Xcode 4提供的Apple Git发行版，那么您就是其中之一：

# create directory to keep Git documentation html-files
$ sudo mkdir -p /usr/local/git/share/doc # or whatever directory you choose

# change to that directory
$ cd /usr/local/git/share/doc

# clone repo with documentation 
$ sudo git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git-htmldocs.git git-doc 

# point your Git explicitly to a new documentation directory
$ git config --global help.htmlpath /usr/local/git/share/doc/git-doc

# tell Git to use html-formatted help by default
$ git config --global help.format html

           

这将在.gitconfig中创建一个条目，如：

[help]
    format = html
    htmlpath = /usr/local/git/share/doc/git-doc
