./configure problems #69

Closed lunathir closed 6 years ago

lunathir commented 6 years ago

When I run ./configure I get an error message saying to run "git submodule update --init" but then I run that it says "Fatal: Not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git" and I was wondering why that is.

How do you retrieve the main source then, not with git?

lunathir commented 6 years ago

I downloaded the main branch through the "Clone" dropdown first but then I went through git. There is not a .git folder or file in the main source.

No idea how you manage not to get ".git", it's standard git stuff. Can you show you commands? Mine are:

$ git clone https://github.com/notaz/picodrive.git Cloning into 'picodrive'... ... $ cd picodrive/ $ ls -ld .git drwxrwxr-x 8 notaz notaz 4096 Nov 12 18:01 .git

It seems to have downloaded on Windows git, but not the git on my Raspberry Pi, which I last tested yesterday, so when I get home, I'll test it.

It works, I had to unhide everything in my file manager then run it in the terminal, which is weird.
