Could you please test the next snapshot at https://wingit.blob.core.windows.net/files/index.html, as soon as it arrives? |

Will do once back at a machine (likely next Monday). Thanks for the fast response/action! |

A very common assumption in Git's source code base is that offset_1st_component() returns either 0 for relative paths, or 1 for absolute paths that start with a slash. In other words, the return value is either 0 or points just after the dir separator. This assumption is not fulfilled when calling offset_1st_component() e.g. on UNC paths on Windows, e.g. "//my-server/my-share". In this case, offset_1st_component() returns the length of the entire string (which is correct, because stripping the last "component" would not result in a valid directory), yet the return value still does not point just after a dir separator. This assumption is most prominently seen in the setup_git_directory_gently_1() function, where we want to append a ".git" component and simply assume that there is already a dir separator. In the UNC example given above, this assumption is incorrect. As a consequence, Git will fail to handle a worktree at the top of a UNC share correctly. Let's fix this by adding a dir separator specifically for that case: we found that there is no first component in the path and it does not end in a dir separator? Then add it. This fixes #1320 Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <[email protected]>

A very common assumption in Git's source code base is that offset_1st_component() returns either 0 for relative paths, or 1 for absolute paths that start with a slash. In other words, the return value is either 0 or points just after the dir separator. This assumption is not fulfilled when calling offset_1st_component() e.g. on UNC paths on Windows, e.g. "//my-server/my-share". In this case, offset_1st_component() returns the length of the entire string (which is correct, because stripping the last "component" would not result in a valid directory), yet the return value still does not point just after a dir separator. This assumption is most prominently seen in the setup_git_directory_gently_1() function, where we want to append a ".git" component and simply assume that there is already a dir separator. In the UNC example given above, this assumption is incorrect. As a consequence, Git will fail to handle a worktree at the top of a UNC share correctly. Let's fix this by adding a dir separator specifically for that case: we found that there is no first component in the path and it does not end in a dir separator? Then add it. This fixes #1320 Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <[email protected]>

Setup
Initially, 2.14.2.2-64bit.
I then tested this with the portable versions below, and all had the same issue.
2.13.1-64bit
2.13.1.2-64bit
2.13.2-64bit
2.13.3-64bit
2.14.0-64bit
2.14.0.2-64bit
2.14.1-64bit
I finally found that 2.13.0.1-64bit was the most recent Git-for-Windows release that behaved as expected (it gave the status of the git repository).
defaults?
to the issue you're seeing?
The filesystem working directory at which the issue occurs is at the root of a Windows share. Changing the filesystem working directory ("cd"-ing) into a subfolder of this directory and then running the same git.exe command succeeded as expected.
Example:
\\server\scripts\git.exe status\\server\scripts\\\server\scripts\mysubfolder\Put another way:
cd \\server\sharename git.exe statuscd \\server\sharename\mysubfolder git.exe statusDetails
PowerShell
Minimal, Complete, and Verifiable example
this will help us understand the issue.
other info: the expected behavior of getting the status of a git repository which resides at the root of a Windows share succeeds with git version
2.13.0.1(a.k.a.git version 2.13.0.windows.1, built from commit:eba7af3dbb4c846c6303c5f64102acee696c9ab0)If the problem was occurring with a specific repository, can you provide the
URL to that repository to help us with testing?
