I have a number of git repositories (with commits) and each displays nothing when running <code>git log</code>. If I run the command outside a project directory (without a git repository) I get: <blockquote> fatal: Not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git </blockquote> I tried re-installing Git (I'm now running 1.7.5.4) and re-cloning my repositories to no avail. Any ideas?

<code>git log</code> does not show any commit! I noticed that not only <code>git log</code> command but also <code>man</code> command does not show anything for me. It turned out that I just needed to set the <code>PAGER</code> environment variable to <code>less</code> or <code>more</code> programs to solve both problems. <pre class="prettyprint"><code>export PAGER=less </code></pre>
