How to resolve this error git -c diff.mnemonicprefix=false -c core.quotepath=fals

[Timothy Irons]

We regularly encounter errors like this, if we don't do everything in exactly the right order.

sourcetree git -c diff.mnemonicprefix=false -c core.quotepath=false --no-optional-locks fetch --no-tags origin main:main

The work around is to delete the local git folder and reclone it, but it there an easy way to fix it from the UI not the terminal.

Hi @Timothy Irons ,

I would say there's no UI-based fix for this (at least there's no documented one). 

The recommended workaround would be to reclone repo with Sourcetree.

Potentially, it could be related to authentication or repo corruption. For authentication issues, you can try updating your credentials in Sourcetree via Tools > Options > Authentication (for Windows) and removing/re-adding your account.
If it's repo corruption, I guess the only way is through command-line operations. 👀

Cheers,
Tobi
