Hey Nostr and npub15qydau2hjma6ngxkl2cyar74wzyjshvl65za5k5rl69264ar2exs5cyejr ! Please help me with this issue and I can pay sats for your time: ## Native git commands failing with git-remote-nostr I was able to make ngit work and the SatShoot repo was pushed to Gitworkshop.dev. However, when I try to use git fetch or push or clone native commands with the remote that is configured with the nostr:// URL, git complains with "git: 'remote-nostr' is not a git command. See 'git --help'. " error message. Other details: - I installed ngit and git-remote-nostr with cargo and they are recognized on $PATH - I am using a nix devshell setup with the 'GIT_REMOTE_HELPERS' env variable exported correctly with the 'nostr' string added next to other built-in transfer protocols. What could be wrong and how to make this work? Make an offer on this URL: https://satshoot.com/naddr1qvzqqqrllupzp5zweue6xqa9npf0md5pak95zgsph2za35sentk88jmzdqwk925sqquyuct5d9mx2tt8d96z6cm0d4kkzmnywvkkvctfd35kueedwa5hg6pdva5hgttjv4kk7ar994hx7um5wgkk6er3wcukyuyh3em #satshoot #asknostr #git #ngit #git-remote-nostr #nix_os #nix

Thanks will try as soon as I get home!
Done. No success yet :/ Same error: ``` git: 'remote-nostr' is not a git command. See git --help'. ``` Reading the [git-scm docs](https://git-scm.com/docs/gitremote-helpers) it says sth about "git remote-<transport>" I guess that should be the mechanism git-remote-nostr is using but I haven’t checked your code. If I try to invoke the binary cargo installed it is auto-completed and in its place on my PATH. Could not say what I'm doing wrong :(
You might be right... I setup the binary cargo installed in the devshell flake not in the configuration.nix where the git package is defined on the nixOS level. Let me try sth and update you with result. Then if it doesn't help I'll share my nix setup!
My lord it's fixed! Thanks for the hints! Actually what was wrong is that I added git-remote-nostr to path with a tilde like '~/.cargo/bin' What worked was '$HOME/.cargo/bin' I don't actually know why but in the shell everything seemed fine I could invoke the command but git could not access it the first way. I'll zap your Offer in SatShoot! Thanks for the help amd for your great project! I feel blessed!
The best would be to package ngit and git-remote-nostr with nix and publish it to github. [Hydra](https://github.com/NixOS/hydra) can help with CI too. This way it will be available on nixos.org and easily searchable and be included in a nix config. Also publishing something nix-bitcoin does like a configurable, modularized template helps a lot. It's a lot of work though.
That's great to hear! So you're familiar with nix. This is the way :)
