+```
+WARNING: The script nbstripout is installed in '/Users/[your user id]/.local/bin' which is not on PATH

 2. Configure `nbstripout` for your repository:
 
 ```{python}
 #| echo: true
 #| eval: false
 
-nbstripout --install --attributes .gitattributes
+~/.local/bin/nbstripout --install --attributes .gitattributes
 ```
