Exactly - that's how I've been operating for a long time and I've never had any problems - everything has always worked correctly and I have the added security of a copy on the network + history on OneDrive, as if something were to happen.

Wait, are you saying that you clone your repositories to OneDrive and operate there (commit pull and push)???? I am not very acquainted with OneDrive but I would bet that it uses a similar technique as Dropbox. If that is the case then having a repository on OneDrive is a very bad idea! Why well synchronization is not an atomic process. To explain this if you push and pull these are atomic operations, they either fail or succeed there is nothing in between, while synchronization or downloading can lead to not finished processes. In the case of repositories that can easily lead to repository corruption and happened to me with mercurial. So I have the feeling that could be the culprit. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Git for human beings" group.
