Attempting to run git commands in ./addons when no .git directory exists about godotenv HOT 3 CLOSED

After doing a little digging it seems this is irrelevant to the above error.

Is initializing a git repo in this location, when attempting to perform these steps manually I encountered the error:

$ git config --local user.email [email protected]
fatal: --local can only be used inside a git repository
$ git status
fatal: detected dubious ownership in repository at '//TRUENAS/dev/godot-game/addons/imrp'
'//TRUENAS/dev/godot-game/addons/imrp' is on a file system that does not record ownership
To add an exception for this directory, call:

        git config --global --add safe.directory '%(prefix)///TRUENAS/dev/godot-game/addons/imrp'

Running the above recommended command, removing ./.addons/imrp and ./addons/imrp, and rerunning godotenv addons install the process went through successfully.

It seems this is related to this CVE:

Since I'm not using a shared system, this CVE isn't that relevant to me so it's somewhat safe to just whitelist all directories.

Haven't seen that before. GodotEnv creates temporary repos for addons it installs to be able to track whether or not they've been manually edited. If they have, it won't reinstall over them because it doesn't want to erase your work. Thank you for sharing your findings!
