[Tutorial] Renewing SmartGit's license

[Fran 99]

Hey guys, though most of SmartGit users probably know it, this is basically to help new scripters. If you don't feel like purchasing a license to use Smartgit once your trial expired, here is a quick way to re-start the trial

 

Windows: %APPDATA%\syntevo\SmartGit\<main-smartgit-version>

OS X: ~/Library/Preferences/SmartGit/<main-smartgit-version>
Unix/Linux: ~/.smartgit/<main-smartgit-version>

 

and remove the file settings.xml.

 

Then start SmartGit program again... And done. This time you will be asked about all the Settings information, which includes the license

Nice guide, should help some new scripters out a bunch.

There is a free version (for private use) I believe. I think I use that. 

Does that expire too?

Thanks for the info.

Why don't you just use SourceTree?

Yeah same... I'm pretty sure if you select the private use option you don't have to pay at all...
