Howdy, dipping back into Discourse development after a long divergence into learning Ember.js. As I’ve hacked away over the past few days trying to remember how I did all this back in August/September I’ve opened terminal to find a script running on what looked like an infinite loop. Finally decide…

Have all hidden files visible and it doesn’t seem to exist… which is puzzling.

If you can’t find .bashrc I recommend that you punt on that and use Install Discourse for development using Docker .

Stuck in infinite loop in Mac terminal after source ~/.bashrc

You’ll need to look in .bashrc and see what it’s doing.
