@dosubot[bot] commented on GitHub (Mar 2, 2026):

Hi @zhuyunxiang! I'm Dosu and I’m helping the desktop team.

Good catch! You're right - the validation shows git: "error" which is causing the startup to fail. Git is a system-level requirement for ComfyUI Desktop, not something inside the virtual environment.

To fix this, install Git on your Mac using one of these methods:

Easiest - Run this in Terminal:
```
xcode-select --install
```
This installs Xcode Command Line Tools which includes Git.
Or via Homebrew (if you have it):
```
brew install git
```

After installing Git, restart ComfyUI Desktop and it should pass validation and start normally.

To reply, just mention @dosu.

Docs are dead. Just use Dosu.

I have installed git before but I reinstall it by brew just now, It works.
Maybe the new MacOS26.3 Version changed something.
