I am trying to get a new windows computer up and running and I just installed SourceTree and connected it to github. When I try to checkout a branch, I'm getting an error because there are files that have a colon in the name which is not compatible with Windows machines. Does anyone know how I can tell git to bypass or ignore these files when checking out a branch? We have too many branches for me to feasibly change the filename or delete the files in every branch (as suggested in this article) so I'd rather just skip them in the checkout process.
Also, for what it's worth, on my previous Windows machine, I'm connected to the same repository and do not appear to experience the same issue which tells me that I probably found a way around it once before...
Thank you!
