Minor/Internal: git clone issue on Windows and possibly also Mac
bumblefudge opened this issue · comments
Hey all:
I have discovered a curious quirk to this repo: when using git clone
from WSL2/ubuntu, everything works fine, but when using Github Desktop/VSC, pulling origin/head "loses" the last few files (check for CAIP-104 and CAIP-122 to see if you're affected).
My guess is that it has something to do with case-insensitive systems not being able to handle this commit and losing all history since, or perhaps somewhere around that time a filename using one of NTFS/APFS reserve character (:
for example). It might even be something easily fixed like trailing whitespace or final newline. I have been digging around on stackoverflow and finding no quick fixes, so leaving this issue up for later.
In any case, if you are having trouble cloning the repo, try WSL/Linux-on-Mac for the git-clone! Or, failing that, just hit .
in github and use the in-browser VSC, which is also unaffected by this issue.
