Hello, in his tutorial Jonas Downey uses the revision control system GIT in order to install extensions like e.g. the “XML Importer”. I installed GIT on Windows XP and it works. However thy syntax that Downey uses, does not work. E.g. the command-line: git submodule add git://github.com/rowan-lewis/xmlimporter.git extensions/xmlimporter

produces the following error: Fatal: Not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git

Unfortunally my knowledge about the Windows or Linux-Shell is limited. Perhaps someones could help with the problem above Thank you very much,

Did you install Symphony via Git as well? Are you in the Symphony installation’s root folder when you run that command?

I haven’t tried to install that extension but if I did I would move to the extensions folder in the Symphony installation and use this command:

git clone http://github.com/rowan-lewis/xmlimporter.git

and then add it to git.

Thank you wisolman, I was successfull with you advice!
