Bug ID: 61816
Summary: No git doesn't mean it is Windows
Product: Pywikibot
Version: core (2.0)
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: General
Assignee: Pywikipedia-bugs(a)lists.wikimedia.org
Reporter: nullzero.free(a)gmail.com

Mobile Platform: ---
I tried to run pywikibot in tools web server and got an error:
File "/shared/pywikipedia/core/pywikibot/version.py", line 134, in
getversion_git
except WindowsError:
NameError: global name 'WindowsError' is not defined
The problem comes from:
cmd = 'git'
try:
subprocess.Popen([cmd], stdout=subprocess.PIPE).communicate()
except WindowsError:
The framework tries to call git, but /usr/bin is not in $PATH in tools web
server; consequently, the calling fails. The error falls to except block, and
obviously, tools server is not Windows; WindowsError is not defined, making
NameError.
