Broken in macOS 12.3 (Apple removed python 2.7)

Apple removed python 2.7 from the OS.

If I update the path to /usr/bin/python3 I get the following errors.

The version installed by Xcode is:

/usr/bin/python3 --version
Python 3.8.9

Temporary fix is to install python2. Quickest way is to grab the official installer - https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-2716

You then have to update all the /usr/bin/python paths to /usr/local/bin/python2 in the Workflow in the Alfred UI and within a few files. The easiest way is to load up the whole workflow folder in an editor of your choice and replace all the python paths via find and replace.

@ddulic I noticed that Git Repos has a lot of /usr/bin/env python but not /usr/bin/python

Should it still be replaced?

@deanishe Is it planed some time to migrate the workflow to python3 ?

[cstromquist]

@ddulic - Thank you. That fixed it for me.

The solution is provided in the #38.
