Re: Unison on El Capitan

Ah, yes, thanks, that worked!  Much appreciated!

What was throwing me off was that if I ssh to a shell, I do have /usr/local/bin in my path, which I am not adding myself.

In a slap-to-the-forehead ‘duh’ moment, I went back through my history, as I thought that I verified the path last night by using:

$ ssh minerva.colornet.com echo $PATH

which of course just displays the LOCAL PATH, and should have been:

$ ssh minerva.colornet.com echo \$PATH

which reveals that the REMOTE PATH is just:

/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin

So thanks for pointing that out!
