Example on tutorial doesn't work

[derekchiang]

I tried the example given here: http://pythonhosted.org/GitPython/0.3.2/tutorial.html

When I did this:

from git import *
repo = Repo("/Users/mtrier/Development/git-python")
assert repo.bare == False

This happened:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "git.py", line 1, in
from git import *
File "/media/Work_Study/CS/workspace/Python/environments/autover2/git.py", line 2, in
repo = Repo("/Users/mtrier/Development/git-python")
NameError: name 'Repo' is not defined

I've just installed "GitPython 0.3.2.RC1" - got identical issue "NameError: name 'Repo' is not defined".

from git import *
repo = Repo("./devtest")

python pygit.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "pygit.py", line 2, in <module>
    repo = Repo("./devtest") 
NameError: name 'Repo' is not defined

I don't have this issue with gitpython, how did you install 0.3.2RC1? If it's pip can you print the output of

pip show GitPython

I've seen that when pip is installed via macports it won't install the release candidate.

I cannot reproduce this one, and believe that you might have accidentally installed an old version. However, the latest version was now updated to 0.3.2 on pypi ,which installs correctly.

Hi, guys, I have installed gitpython on Anaconda using conda, it's been installed properly. Still, I am getting the following error:
File "search.py", line 59, in
repo = Repo (Git_Repository)
NameError: name 'Repo' is not defined
Can anyone help, please?

before using GitPython make sure you have a repository on path
if you haven't a repository use this command git init
