Some options trouble about zulip HOT 7 CLOSED

These scripts require /bin/bash, but your local environment appears to be forcing usage of /bin/sh.

from zulip.

Emmm, I'm sorry but these scripts are located inside the Vagrant VM (which runs inside VirtualBox), so that issue is a problem of Vagrant, and not of mine machine.

Here my bash environment inside VM

(zulip-venv)vagrant@vagrant-ubuntu-trusty-64:~$ echo $BASH
/bin/bash
(zulip-venv)vagrant@vagrant-ubuntu-trusty-64:~$ echo $SHELL
/bin/bash

And in the Cygwin

@00:11:40 wwarlock@Pc-2 zulip git:(master)$ echo $BASH
/usr/bin/bash
@00:11:48 wwarlock@Pc-2 zulip git:(master)$ echo $SHELL
/bin/bash

What else I must to fix to force use of /bin/bash inside VM ?

from zulip.

I believe your shell is fine and your problems are actually due to Windows line endings in your Git clone. What is the output of git config --list | grep crlf?

Example to reproduce this effect:

$ cat foo.sh
#!/bin/sh -e
echo hi
$ ./foo.sh
hi
$ unix2dos foo.sh
unix2dos: converting file foo.sh to DOS format ...
$ ./foo.sh
/bin/sh: 0: Illegal option -

@00:24:36 wwarlock@Pc-2 zulip git:(master)$ git config --list | grep crlf
core.autocrlf=true

Ok, I try to switch off line endings conversion and clone the zulip repo once more

Please add that information to the README.

git clone https://github.com/zulip/zulip.git -c core.autocrlf=false worked for me on Windows.
