    <p>I'm using RVM. I wrote a Git <code>pre-commit</code> hook for a project:</p> <pre><code>#!/usr/bin/env ruby puts RUBY_VERSION puts `echo $PATH` exit(1) </code></pre> <p>which outputs this when run by Git:</p> <pre><code>$ git ci -m 'foo' 1.8.7 /usr/libexec/git-core:/usr/bin:/usr/local/heroku/bin:/Users/mgoerlich/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.0.0-p195@global/bin:/Users/mgoerlich/.rvm/rubies/ruby-2.0.0-p195/bin:/Users/mgoerlich/.rvm/bin:/Users/mgoerlich/adt-bundle-mac-x86_64-20130219/sdk/platform-tools:/Users/mgoerlich/adt-bundle-mac-x86_64-20130219/sdk/tools:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/Users/mgoerlich/.dotfiles/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/bin/core_perl:/Users/mgoerlich/bin:/usr/local/share/npm/bin:/usr/local/share/npm/bin </code></pre> <p>It seems to run with the wrong version of Ruby because <code>$PATH</code> is not the same as in bash or zsh or sh. It seems like git is manipulating <code>$PATH</code>. When run manually, I get this:</p> <pre><code>$ .git/hooks/pre-commit 2.0.0 /usr/local/heroku/bin:/Users/mgoerlich/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.0.0-p195@global/bin:/Users/mgoerlich/.rvm/rubies/ruby-2.0.0-p195/bin:/Users/mgoerlich/.rvm/bin:/Users/mgoerlich/adt-bundle-mac-x86_64-20130219/sdk/platform-tools:/Users/mgoerlich/adt-bundle-mac-x86_64-20130219/sdk/tools:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/Users/mgoerlich/.dotfiles/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/bin/core_perl:/Users/mgoerlich/bin:/usr/local/share/npm/bin:/usr/local/share/npm/bin </code></pre> <p>In the output of the commit hook, there are two paths prepended, one of them <code>/usr/bin</code> where the system Ruby's executable is placed.</p> <p>Is this a known behavior? Can I manipulate that somehow? I know I could specify the full path to the correct Ruby version in the shebang, but this is not what I want.</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
