Raymond Camden commented on CB-6208:
------------------------------------

How so? The CLI would notice and report the error better? I think that would be fine, but honestly, it *is* clear if you take the time to read. The folks who reported this to me were... well... maybe not just taking the time to read carefully. (And honestly, I got the impression they were kinda new to dev.)

> Twice now I've run into people who have an issue adding a plugin because they don't have Git installed. While the error is pretty clear, it is in the middle of a bunch of other output and the docs should note that this is a dependancy. To be fair, it isn't necessarily something you need to run a CLI, but as soon as you add a plugin (which is pretty much *always* required now), you run into it.
