'Maybe git-rebase is broken'

Question

3rd Update

More information:

• commands in the git-bash shell work as expected

  • in the git-bash shell, Git\\bin\\git.exe is called

Answer 1

Not definitive (it doesn't explain why git is working on one of my computers but not the other), but it does provide some insight into what might be going on: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/msysgit/VrQLAgQwJHM

I have installed the portable version, added it to my path, and git is working as expected again.

Answer 2

Can you find C:\Program Files (x86)\Git\libexec\git-core\git-rebase which is a shell script? It should be there in order to work.

Answer 3

I known this question is quite old but I ran into a similar problem. It may help someone else. To avoid problems with MinGW make, I had to rename sh.exe to ensure it was not in the path. After that, commands like git rebase were not working anymore giving the same error as in the question:

fatal: 'rebase' appears to be a git
command, but we were not   able to execute it.
Maybe git-rebase is broken?

As soon as I restored sh.exe, git rebase restarted to work.
