| Changing SmartGit Free Trial License to Non-Commercial | |
| Some developers might overlook the license selection when using the SmartGit. Instead of choose non-commercial, they by default clicked Next on the “30 days Free Trial”. Worse thing is reinstall the SmartGit won’t get you to change the license. | |
| To alter the license. First, go to | |
| 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. This time you will be ask about all the Settings information, which including the license! |
solicita para la licencia n comercial , que tengan un minimo de 100 aportes en github para autorizarla.. =(
Yoг can remove "evaluation" file
thanks
So does it mean that there is no way to use old version for non commercial?
Found Non-commercial licensing changes for SmartGit 22.1 which explains the change in license. It has a link to Apply for Non-Commercial License. I haven't yet attempted to apply using the Open Source application via GitHub.
Did you find a solution for "Non-Commercial License" without a GitHub account that respect "everyone who spends the majority of their work on open-source projects (before, it was only “to actively work on open-source projects”, which is significantly more restrictive)"?
For me it's back to my previous client. I don't fit their idea of a non-commercial user but the hobby license is too restrictive for me.

Which client do you use?
same here, i work for education but the process seam too complicated to get a free licence
Sup guys. I use now v20.2.6 without any troubles. You can edit your smartgit.sh file for auto-reset trial period as follows:
config="/home/$USER/.config/smartgit/<YOUR_SMARTGIT_VERSION>/preferences.yml"
# current date in msec + 25 days
NEW_DATE=$(date -d"+25 days" +%s%3N)
# sed is for change old date for new one in config
sed -r -i "s/(listx: \{eUT: )[0-9]+/\1$NEW_DATE/g" $config
sed -r -i "s/(, nRT: )[0-9]+/\1$NEW_DATE/g" $config
If you use your SmartGit instance as deb-package probably your smartgit.sh located at /usr/share/smartgit/bin/smartgit.sh
@alxpsr this is very elegant and works great, thanks!
@alxpsr, It works perfectly. Thanks!
not working on v23.1
You can also apply for a none commercial license:
https://www.syntevo.com/register-non-commercial/
Or pay 6 USD a month for the commercial
Works fine on v20.2.6. alxpsr Thanks!
I adapted the script for macOS:
#!/usr/bin/env zsh
config="/Users/$USER/Library/Preferences/SmartGit/20.2/preferences.yml"
# current date in msec + 25 days
NEW_DATE=$(date -j -v +25d +%s000)
# sed is for change old date for new one in config
sed -r -i '' "s/(listx: \{eUT: )[0-9]+/\1$NEW_DATE/g" $config
sed -r -i '' "s/(, nRT: )[0-9]+/\1$NEW_DATE/g" $config
Works fine on v20.2.6. alxpsr Thanks!

Please tell me where the file smartgit.sh is located in MacOS

It's here: /Applications/SmartGit.app/Contents/Resources/smartssh.sh, but this script not run when you run app from LaunchPad or Application folder. Better rename SmartGit executable file to SmartGit_ in /Applications/SmartGit.app/Contents/MacOS/
And then create new text file near the SmartGit_ with this content and name it as SmartGit:
#!/usr/bin/env zsh
config="/Users/$USER/Library/Preferences/SmartGit/20.2/preferences.yml"
# current date in msec + 25 days
NEW_DATE=$(date -j -v +25d +%s000)
# sed is for change old date for new one in config
sed -r -i '' "s/(listx: \{eUT: )[0-9]+/\1$NEW_DATE/g" $config
sed -r -i '' "s/(, nRT: )[0-9]+/\1$NEW_DATE/g" $config
/Applications/SmartGit.app/Contents/MacOS/SmartGit_
@andfrolov7 Thanks a lot!
P.S. I found a solution to add a script as a new application in the Applications folder.
After previous actions:
- Make the .sh file executable:
chmod +x /Applications/SmartGit.app/Contents/MacOS/SmartGit - Create an Application using Automator:
- Open Automator. You can find it via Spotlight (press Cmd + Space, then type "Automator").
- Choose to create a new document and select "Application".
- In the left pane, under "Utilities", find "Run Shell Script" and drag it to the right pane.
- Replace the text in the script box with the
/Applications/SmartGit.app/Contents/MacOS/SmartGit - Save the Automator application (File > Save), name it (for example, SmartGift), and choose Where: "Applications"
- Optionally, you can change the Application Icon:
- Find an image to use as the new icon (for example, from SmartGit:
/Applications/SmartGit.app/Contents/Resources/icon.icns) - Open the image in Finder.
- Right-click on your newly created application on the Applications folder and select "Get Info".
- Drag and drop the new icon to the small icon at the top left corner of the Info window.
