Dear git-Team, we recognized a behavior that comes up with a newer git version. Unfortunately we do not know which version exactly.
The problem: For development we are using virtual box controlled via vagrant with a shared folder on windows and mac hosts. The virtual OS ist ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS. In march this year we started with git in version around 2.3. With cloning a repo directly in the shared folder we haven’t had any problems. A few weeks ago we weren’t able to clone and get an error: could not commit /vagrant/.git/config file. Manually we were able to change that file and also the clone command works outside the shared folder.
We retried it again with git version 1.9.1 (I think the standard of ubuntu 14.04 LTS) and it worked. So the break seems to be around 2.4.
I hope you are able to understand the problem and can do something. Please tell me if this is not a real bug.
Thanks a lot for the greatest VCS in the world.
Greetings from Berlin.
