Hello, for a long time I've struggled with getting a path error when I try to do a commit using emacs-magit. Here is an example log copied from the magit-process buffer:
``` 0 git … add -u -- Genesis/gen_1.org 1 git … commit -- hint: Waiting for your editor to close the file... Waiting for Emacs... *ERROR*: Searching for program: No such file or directory, git error: There was a problem with the editor '/gnu/store/dpky3z5844bclhswdk69z90vayy65b58-emacs-27.2/bin/emacsclient --socket-name=/run/user/1000/emacs/server'. Please supply the message using either -m or -F option. ``` I find this confusing because - I can use magit to stage my commits - In the Magit Group (M-x customize-group magit), the Magit Git Executable is set to /home/christopher/.guix-profile/bin/git, and that file does exist in my profile. - /gnu/store/dpky3z5844bclhswdk69z90vayy65b58-emacs-27.2/bin/emacsclient also does exist - Within emacs, I can run the shell command M-! git commit or M-! git commit -m "..." and this works fine. I suspect that emacs-magit might not be properly using the Magit Git Executable path for this action, but haven't had a chance to look at the source code yet. Probably this should be submitted as an issue or support request to emacs-magit, but I have not done so since (on principle) I do not have a github account, or use google groups.
