Phew - finally think I have resolved this - and explained why failing on all versions of NB, but not with git command line and why it is only bugging me.... The thread GitRefresh (which I guess would not run until after first commit) was sitting looking at filecache for file <project>/A/B/A/B/... repeating A/B for nearly 1000 deep. (no actual files, only directories) Like recursion gone wrong. Window file explorer and command line tools wouldn't delete the tree so had to write custom java code to nuke it. Once gone, Git seems to be perfectly happy. The project with offending tree was not one I was using but it was still open in NB. How the file tree got created in the first place remains a complete mystery but it was one where I was experimenting with different tools to package code and JRE into a single executable. Matthias - you are a scholar and a gentleman. I cant imagine how I would have found this without your help. Gittrefresh was first thread I tried and the weird file path caught my eye the moment I got variables up though I was looking checkAccess. Once I found the file tree actually existed, an Ah Ha moment followed. Thank you again from the bottom of my heart. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
