unTar(): error while creating symlink ... file exists #149

hello @xorpaul

it was a while since I didn't not update g10k, then I jumped from version 0.6.1 to verions 0.8.1 (and then 0.8.2, without solving the issue) and g10k started throwing the following error: 

unTar(): error while creating symlink modules/hieradata/hostgroups/kube-control.yaml pointing to kube-master.yaml Error: symlink kube-master.yaml modules/hieradata/hostgroups/kube-control.yaml: file exists

It throws the error, always on this same file: kube-control.yaml, and on both puppet servers (I have two puppet servers). To clean the error I had to delete all the file and run g10k again. To solve the problem I had to roll-back to a working version (for me it's 0.6.1)

Now, I am trying a git diff between tags, to ensure that you're not doing anything around the word "control"

Is kube-control.yaml a simple symlink inside a Puppetfile managed module, yes?

maxadamo commented 4 years ago

yes (I have 70 symlinks in hiera). If I purge all the files, it keeps working for a couple of commits, then it errors again.

I can't imagine what it can be wrong with the name, but perhaps you can create a file called kube-master.yaml, and a symlink called kube-control.yaml pointing to kube-master.yaml.
