I am using Aquamacs v 1.7 on a Mac -- Emacs 22.3.1 -- and Tramp v 2.1.15. I have the binaries for git on the remote machine installed in an unusual place, so I have added (add-to-list 'tramp-remote-path "/noc/users/agn/ext/AMD64/bin") to my Preferences.el doing C-h v tramp-remote-path gives tramp-remote-path is a variable defined in `tramp.el'. Its value is ("/noc/users/agn/ext/AMD64/bin" tramp-default-remote-path "/usr/sbin" "/usr/local/bin" "/local/bin" "/local/freeware/bin" "/local/gnu/bin" "/usr/freeware/bin" "/usr/pkg/bin" "/usr/contrib/bin") When I bring up a file on the remote machine with e.g. /ssh:nozzle:/noc/altix/working/agn/NEMO/GRIFFIES/traldf_iso_grif.F90 it's fine, and I get the message Loading vc-git...done However, when I try to use the VC tools menu on the file I get (incorrectly) File /ssh:nozzle:/noc/altix/working/agn/NEMO/GRIFFIES/traldf_iso_grif.F90 is not under version control I guess I must have misunderstood something here. --George Nurser.
