I've created a network drive for my locally hosted website, and I'm managing all my files directly on the network drive. And I'm using that network drive as a local git repo. So, if I make any changes to a file there, I'd also want to be able to push it my my remote git repo. But when I start to do that, its gives me so many errors. Sometimes, it fails to check the status, sometimes gives errors such as
1. "fatal: index file smaller than expected" 2. "fatal: Unable to create 'Y:/demo.dotcms.com/demos/tstgit/.git/index.lock': File exists." 3. "error: update_ref failed for ref 'HEAD': cannot lock ref 'HEAD': Unable to create 'Y:/demo.dotcms.com/demos/tstgit/.git/refs/heads/master.lock': File exists." 4. "error: update_ref failed for ref 'refs/remotes/origin/master': cannot lock ref 'refs/remotes/origin/master': Unable to create Y:/demo.dotcms.com/demos/tstgit/.git/refs/remotes/origin/master.lock': File exists." I've googled and followed every direction I could in: 1. http://codybonney.com/fixing-fatal-index-file-smaller-than-expected-error/ 2. http://programertools.blogspot.com/2014/04/how-to-fix-fatal-index-file-smaller.html 3. http://vertis.io/2012/01/24/git-fatal-index-file-smaller-than-expected.html 4. https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/SRCTREE-2018 But I'm still getting these issues. However, when I try to check status, stage, commit, push, everything seems to work fine when I do it from my local drive. But I get these errors only when working from network drive.
