Problems under cygwin with out of tree repository about pygitup HOT 12 CLOSED

Interesting. Could you post the result from running git rev-parse --show-toplevel in this directory? And could you try running PyGitUp from Windows' cmd.exe?

from pygitup.

Under cmd.exe and powershell.exe it seems to work.

from pygitup.

Okay, what's the result of git rev-parse --show-toplevel on Cygwin, CMD and Powershell?

from pygitup.

Powershell:

D:/_P/(obscured)/SW/50_Implementation

Cygwin:

/cygdrive/d/_P/(obscured)/SW/50_Implementation

git rev-parse --git-dir yields:

Powershell:

D:/Git_repos/out_of_tree/repo_name.git

Cygwin:

/cygdrive/d/Git_repos/out_of_tree/repo_name.git

from pygitup.

Just out of curiosity, what happens, if you use /cygdrive/d/Git_repos/out_of_tree/repo_name.git in your .git file instead of D:/Git_repos/out_of_tree/repo_name.git?

from pygitup.

@RedX2501 Is this still relevant?

from pygitup.

Tried it out with 1.4.0 and still the same behaviour.

Output with a cygwin path produces a correct git-up error message:
Can't update your repo because it doesn't has any branches with tracking information.

Output with a cygwin path produces a correct git-up error message:

You mean when using a cygwin path in the .git file?

from pygitup.

Yes

from pygitup.

Which console did you use? PowerShell or the Cygwin shell? If it's with both, this problem is fixed, isn't it?

from pygitup.

Just a quick heads up: GitPython v2.1.0 promises to improve Cygwin support (see this PR). It seems to improve path handling with Cygwin so maybe it fixes this problem. Could you update GitPython (pip install -U GitPython) and see if the problem is fixed?

Closing due to inactivity, feel free to re-open if this is still an issue.
