(And I believe is executed in the parent dir instead of in the .git dir) ``` fatal: Not a git repository (or any parent up to mount point /gitrepo) Stopping at filesystem boundary (GIT_DISCOVERY_ACROSS_FILESYSTEM not set). ``` Omitting `odbt=git.GitCmdObjectDB` from the `git.Repo` constructor seems to avoid the issue a little bit, but a repo refresh is needed and that still errors. Anyways, changing `odbt` could have other unwanted affects. I think the best workaround is to change the repo to a bare repo. E.g. fork to a new location, remove original, fork back. Or do a local check out, remove repo, create new one, push all branches back. --- Sent from forge-allura.apache.org because dev@allura.apache.org is subscribed to https://forge-allura.apache.org/p/allura/tickets/ To unsubscribe from further messages, a project admin can change settings at https://forge-allura.apache.org/p/allura/admin/tickets/options.
