Subject: Gitk doesn't work on macOS Mojave
Date: Thu, 19 Jul 2018 21:05:43 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <D295145E-7596-4409-9681-D8ADBB9EBB0C@me.com> (raw)
Hi
You have probably heard this by now already, but gitk doesn’t work on macOS 10.14 - because it uses Apple Events,
And apps on 10.14 require user to give them permissions to control other apps with Apple Events.
Here is what I get when I try running it on my machine with beta 4 installed:
Error in startup script: 58:102: execution error: Not authorized to send Apple events to System Events. (-1743)
while executing
"exec osascript -e [format {
tell application "System Events"
set frontmost of processes whose unix id is %d to true
end te..."
invoked from within
"if {[tk windowingsystem] eq "aqua"} {
exec osascript -e [format {
tell application "System Events"
set frontmost of processes ..."
(file "/usr/local/bin/gitk" line 12212)
And Apple doesn’t allow to add apps to “Automation” :(
Best regards.
And thanks for git :)
