@ysabri when you install the dugite package, it'll fetch the embedded Git distribution for your platform and extract it on disk alongside the other package contents.

You should have a layout similar to this:

~/src/desktop/app/node_modules/dugite/
$ tree -L 3

10 directories, 20 files

To resolve the Git distribution directory, this function is used if LOCAL_GIT_DIRECTORY is not set:

function resolveEmbeddedGitDir(): string {
const s = path.sep
return path
.resolve(__dirname, '..', '..', 'git')
.replace(/[\\\/]app.asar[\\\/]/, `${s}app.asar.unpacked${s}`)
}

This is basically looking for the git directory at the root of the package.

When GIT_EXEC_PATH is also not set, it's at a known location based on the current platform. That's this code:

const gitDir = resolveGitDir()
if (
process.platform === 'darwin' ||
process.platform === 'linux' ||
process.platform === 'android'
) {
return path.join(gitDir, 'libexec', 'git-core')
} else if (process.platform === 'win32') {
return path.join(gitDir, 'mingw64', 'libexec', 'git-core')
}

Let me know if you have any other questions about this.
