Problem installing git subrepo on MacOs bash 5

I was trying to install git subrepo on MacOs with bash 5.0.18 installed. When I source .bashrc, I get error message :

The git-subrepo command requires that 'Bash 4+' is installed. It doesn't need to be your shell, but it must be in your PATH. You appear to be on macOS. Try: 'brew install bash'. This will not change your user shell, it just installs 'Bash 5.x'.

Is git subrepo not compatible with bash 5 or is there any solution to make it work?

Solution

  • apparently, I can install it using brew with less hassle:

    brew install git-subrepo
