Why does gd command on Linux show a git error?

[ardawan]

1. installed Godot 4.2.1 via snap install godot-4 this is not Mono version.
2. created a project /my/dir/
3. run go install grow.graphics/gd/cmd/gd@master
4. created an empty main function in /my/dir/main.go
5. run gd, gd run, gd test all displays is:

$ gd
warning: Not a git repository. Use --no-index to compare two paths outside a working tree
usage: git diff --no-index [<options>] <path> <path>

Diff output format options
    -p, --patch           generate patch
    -s, --no-patch        suppress diff output
    -u                    generate patch
    -U, --unified[=<n>]   generate diffs with <n> lines context
    -W, --function-context
...

Looks like you've setup gd as an alias for git diff, so it's not running the grow.graphics/gd/cmd/gd.

Check that $(go env GOPATH)/bin is in your $PATH and consider removing the alias if you are not git diffing regularly.

I'm using zsh and the path to those aliases wasn't in ~/.bash_profile , ~/.bashrc or ~/.zshrc.
instead, I found it in ~/.oh-my-zsh/plugins/git/git.plugin.zsh

now I can use the command but need to find out about those ERRORs:

$ gd run

Ah, yes make sure you import the grow.graphics/gd/gdextension package in your file. Ie. Call Link. Also start the editor once so that it can initialise. I'll look into a way to do this automatically when you start a new project.
