Subject: safe directory on shared drives
Date: Fri, 15 Apr 2022 06:14:25 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAO=QCg5+M-=dOf=AFTDL8z9-LrK-7vau+=JV-7QJfVOhdFp1Aw@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

The new git security rules creates an issue on Windows systems where
the git repository is hosted in a shared folder.

$ git status

```
fatal: unsafe repository ('//192.168.0.120/config/' is owned by someone else)
To add an exception for this directory, call:

        git config --global --add safe.directory //192.168.0.120/config/
```

$ git config --global --add safe.directory //192.168.0.120/config/
$ git status

```
warning: encountered old-style '//192.168.0.120/config/' that should
be '%(prefix)//192.168.0.120/config/'
fatal: unsafe repository ('//192.168.0.120/config/' is owned by someone else)
To add an exception for this directory, call:

        git config --global --add safe.directory //192.168.0.120/config/
```

There seems to be no way to add a shared drive path to the safe directory list.
