Detail info

When running :PackagerInstal in nvim, git clone info shows properly at first, and when clone finished (I do found plugins at ~\AppData\Local\nvim\pack\packager\opt) it shows that Error (exit status 128) - fatal: not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git It shows the same error when i run :PackagerUpdate command.

[KortanZ]

It shows just a single line error info fatal: not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git when i press E in each plugins line.

[kristijanhusak]

Does it happen only for one plugin, or for all of them? I just give it a try, and it doesn't happen for me. What do you get for :!git --version ?

[KortanZ]

I've got git version 2.21.0.windows.1. And it happen for all of them.

[kristijanhusak]

Does it error out, but it is installed, or it doesn't get installed at all?

[KortanZ]

All plugins are installed correctly, it just error out, and when run :PackgerUpdate, it dose nothing except throw this error out. I suspect that there might be something wrong about path-join stuff when do git pull.

[KortanZ]

I also record some log use -V14 flage when run PackagerUpdate. Hers is the line i thouth might help

[KortanZ]

I also tried every old version of this plugin since this commit and error still occurs.

[kristijanhusak]

Uh, that's really strange. It shouldn't be happening for older version, no one reported it. Can you give me your full vimrc and your gitconfig ?

[KortanZ]

The init.vim file (vimrc file in neovim) shown top of this issue is my full init.vim file. and here is my all gitconfig:

[kristijanhusak]

Can you temporarily remove all custom git config that you have and try to run install/update to see if it happens?

[KortanZ]

I don't have any custom git config except user name and user email which is required by git.

[kristijanhusak]

In this file C:\\ProgramData/Git/config these core and rebase settings, not sure what they do. Maybe go there and comment it out temporarily?

[KortanZ]

I know exactly what they are doing, they have no effect to git pull operation. But i do comment them out and have a try. The error still.

[KortanZ]

Actually i think git works well and this error is nothing about git itself since in log message vim-packager get every plugins branch name successfully.

[kristijanhusak]

I tried it on same Windows 10 build, and with latest development prerelease, and didn't get any error. Cannot reproduce it unfortunately...

It looks like git error since from 2nd comment you said when you press E it says fatal not a git repository, which means some git command failed.

I would need help with this. Try applying this patch to the vim-packager, and give me all the results of :messages after it finishes.

:messages shows nothing, but when i do :PackagerUpdate, it shows some cd and git like command log

[kristijanhusak]

Yeah, apply the patch, start neovim, run :PackagerUpdate, and when it finishes (you will probably have to press enter few times while it prints out everything), run :messages and send me all the messages that you get printed.

[KortanZ]

My fault, i don't say it clearly. What you say is exactyl what i have done above-- run PackagerUpdate and press enter till it finished and run :messages. and nvim shows nothing. It seems that :messages dose not record the log

[kristijanhusak]

Ah, sorry, my bad. I updated the patch. It needs to be echom instead of echo. Just re-apply the patch and give it another try.

[KortanZ]

Here is the log:

[KortanZ]

The weired things is that if i manually run the commands above in cmd, everything works fine and it returns Already up to date

[kristijanhusak]

when you go to vim-packager folder, and run this git config --get remote.origin.url, what do you get?

[KortanZ]

https://github.com/kristijanhusak/vim-packager.git but only vim-packager get the .git at the end fo url, in other plugin folder, it get https://github.com/easymotion/vim-easymotion

[kristijanhusak]

What if you try to run git commands from log, but inside vim, like this:

:!cd C:\Users\Kortan\AppData\Local\nvim\pack\packager\opt\vim-packager && git pull --ff-only --progress --rebase=false && git submodule update --init --recursive --progress

What do you get?

[KortanZ]

Error same as PackagerUpdate

[kristijanhusak]

Give me output of these commands in vim:

echo &shell
echo &shellcmdflag
echo &shellredir

[KortanZ]

cmd.exe
/s /c
>%s 2>&1

[kristijanhusak]

Ok. I forgot this one:

echo &shellslash

Also, lets try this. Go to the vim-packager folder, and open neovim from there (or cd to the vim-packager folder). Just make sure cwd in neovim is set to vim-packager folder. Then, run this:

:!git pull --ff-only --progress --rebase=false && git submodule update --init --recursive --progress

Do you still get the same?

[KortanZ]

echo &shellslash returns 0 and when i cd in vim-packager folder, command returns Already up to date

[kristijanhusak]

What if you run command like this? (Note the /d added)

:!cd /d C:\Users\Kortan\AppData\Local\nvim\pack\packager\opt\vim-packager && git pull --ff-only --progress --rebase=false && git submodule update --init --recursive --progress

[KortanZ]

THAT WORKS， I got Already up to date

[kristijanhusak]

Ok great. I'll push a fix soon.

[KortanZ]

Really thank you for your help!

[kristijanhusak]

I pushed a fix. Pull latest vim-packager and give it a try.

[KortanZ]

I've tested PackgerInstall and PackagerUpadte, it works really well.

[kristijanhusak]

Ok great, closing. Thanks for reporting.
