Oops...! Somehow Julia has created a rouge directory in my
C:\Users\<myname>" which indeed contains a METADATA folder. I was under the
impression that Julia was portable and could be dropped into any folder and
would stick to that folder, just like any well-behaved portable app.
But ok... "git status" in the METADATA folder gives me:
On branch metadata-v2
Your branch is up-to-date with 'origin/metadata-v2'.
Changes not staged for commit:
(use "git add <file>..." to update what will be committed)
(use "git checkout -- <file>..." to discard changes in working directory)
modified: FixedEffectModels/versions/0.1.0/requires
modified: FixedEffectModels/versions/0.1.1/requires
modified: FixedEffectModels/versions/0.2.0/requires
modified: FixedEffectModels/versions/0.2.1/requires
modified: FixedEffectModels/versions/0.2.2/requires
no changes added to commit (use "git add" and/or "git commit -a")
I did not change any of those files (I didn't even know that they existed).
Thanks
