--- Comment #1 from Simon Persson <[email protected]> ---
Thanks for the report!

There is nothing special about NTFS that I think could affect the opening and
browsing of files in a bup repo there. Of course I could be wrong.
The failure you see is when libgit2 fails to open the given path as a git
repository. So one thing you could do, if you have git installed, is to run
some simple command like `git log` inside that folder on NTFS and see if that
works or not. If "bup fuse" works then I would expect these git commands to
also work. Which makes me think if there is a problem with the version of
libgit2 installed on your system. But then you said that another repo worked.
I'm confused.

Perhaps best thing would be to copy the entire folder over to another
filesystem, if it's not too big. Otherwise, please make a new backup plan for
some small folder, save to NTFS and see if that new bup repo has the same
problem. Then copy that whole repo folder over to another filesystem and try
again. In this way we can be sure if it has anything to do with the filesystem.

Sorry for not testing this myself, I just don't have an NTFS directly
available.... and limited time for bug hunting. Setting status as worksforme
since I know I have tested on NTFS many years ago, it has worked.
