I’m a newbie at using shopify-cli .

I am following the tutorial “How to Build a Shopify App”.

Whenever I run the command “shopify node create” , and fill in my app name and submit .

I get the same error : “/home/alfred/.rvm/rubies/ruby-2.6.8/lib/ruby/2.6.0/open3.rb:213:in `spawn’: No such file or directory - git (Errno::ENOENT)”

The full stack trace is:

[email removed] shopify node create
? App name

test_ext_xxxx
? What type of app are you building? (You chose: Custom: An app custom built for a single client.)
This command ran with ID: 14454

my node version is :

[email removed] nvm current
v14.18.0
alfred@XXXXX-ALF-LT-VB1:~/proj$

I am getting exactly the same error when I installed Ruby version 3.0.0. and Shopify-Cli version 2.6.3

Have I missed out something else which I need to install in my local development environment?

Thanks in advance for your help!
