Smartgit – still run it after trial expires

Smartgit is one of the best git tool available. I have used a few but smartgit is really cool. However your license as a non-commercial free user expires in 2-3 months. This is how you can get it working again. Someone has shared this in stackover flow.

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.

If you have updated many times, you may need to remove the updates folder as well.

It helped me on Windows, hope it helps you on other systems as well.
