Exception running test libgit2

[ajgiuliani]

I ran /julia -e "Base.runtests()" to test an homebrew installation of julia on MacOS 10.10.5. I got the following the following error:

Exception running test libgit2 :

Any ideas of what happened ?

[yuyichao]

Is there no other output?

[ajgiuliani]

There is no other output after issuing Base.runtests().

[nalimilan]

Well, there was necessarily more output showing the list of tests which were run. Isn't there any error message buried there? Could you post the full output in a gist?

[ajgiuliani]

Indeed, several tests were passed. You'll find the full output below.

[tkelman]

the failure is isfile(joinpath(repo_path,LibGit2.Consts.HEAD_FILE))

this is probably because the homebrew libgit2 version doesn't match what that version of julia supports. build 0.5.2 from source without using homebrew, or use the mac binaries.

[ajgiuliani]

Homebrew Julia 0.5.0 works fine, but I could get any later version to work.
Thank you for your help, I'll switched to the binaries.
