Gitui thought it was bare repo but is not

[azamaulanaaa]

Describe the bug I have been using gitui for a long time. it was working well until I don't know it just does not work. in Fresh repo, clone repo, or old local repo it just does not work. i tried to debug mode and did not print anything.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. git init or git clone https://github.com/azamaulanaaa/pyunduh or any old repo (some repo works and some don't)

2. $ git rev-parse --is-bare-repository
   false
   $ gitui
   invalid path
   please run gitui inside of a non-bare git repository

Expected behavior It should be working, especially fresh repo

Context:

• OS/Distro + Version: Fedora 36
• GitUI Version: 0.20.1
• Installed from: dnf
• git version: 2.37.1

if I clone your repo and run gitui on it, I do not get this error 🤔

[azamaulanaaa]

I found the pattern.

gitui does not work if the repo is located on a mounted partition. weird. gitui will error bare repo on it if tho is not.

[extrawurst]

can you give me some instructions how to create such a mounted partition for testing purposes so I can reproduce the issue?

ok I don't get it. what exactly are the instructions how to create a mount to reproduce this now?

[azamaulanaaa]

Context Partition : /dev/sdc1 FileSystem : NTFS Mount dir : /mnt/sdc1 Disk type : USB Flash Drive

Shell script

#!/bin/sh
partition=/dev/sdc1
mount_dir=/mnt/sdc1
sudo mkfs -t ntfs -f $partition
sudo mkdir -p $mount_dir
sudo mount -t auto -o nosuid,nodev,nofail,x-gvfs-show $partition $mount_dir
mkdir -p $mount_dir/repo
cd $mount_dir/repo
git init
gitui

stdout

Cluster size has been automatically set to 4096 bytes.
Creating NTFS volume structures.
mkntfs completed successfully. Have a nice day.
Initialized empty Git repository in /mnt/sdc1/repo/.git/
invalid path
please run gitui inside of a non-bare git repository

Note : I tried my best to replicate my ssd mount setting on fstab.

Extra Note: gitui will works just fine if the partition mounted by gnome-disk-utility with the default setting

You have safe.directory=* in your config. See #1293 for a workaround.

ok seems to be a duplicate of #1293
