I'm on macOS 15.4.1. Running in iTerm or Terminal, error is the same on both. Bash installed via Brew.
echo $BASH_VERSION returns 5.2.37(1)-release

Clone works ok.
Directory init works ok.
./bssg.sh post returns:

Hi, that's strange, as I'm testing BSSG on MacOS and it's working properly. My suspect is that it's still using the embedded, ancient MacOS bash version.

Could you please add this line:

echo "DEBUG: scripts/post.sh is running with BASH_VERSION: $BASH_VERSION" >/tmp/bashversion

Just under the #!/usr/bin/env bash line of the scripts/post.sh and, after running it, tell me the contents of the /tmp/bashversion file?

Ok, it returned the old 3.2 version. I've gone through and reinstall Homebrew and reinstalled bash and reset the shell to bash and now it all works. Apologies for the hassle. Something wasn't wanting to accept the updated bash shell. It all works now!
