Git status stopped working for one repo

[Mellbourn]

I had been running the powerlevel10k successfully in several git repos for a couple of hours, when one of the repos (a very large monorepo) stopped showing any git status in the prompt whatsoever.

I set up GITSTATUS_LOG_LEVEL=DEBUG and got the following logs:

To get this log I first changed to a repo folder that works fine code/private/zabb, then changed directory to home, and then changed directory to company-app where it did not work.

The git part of the prompt has previously worked in company-app. Ordinary git commands work fine (though slow).

company-app is a large monorepo (it is the same that I previously used sparse-checkout for, see #1322, but I have now stopped using sparse checkout, since I want to use the full features of powerlevel10k)

See #816 (comment)

Thanks for the immediate response :)
It is a bit strange since I specifically disabled sparse-checkout, and that made the git prompt work fine for a while. But I'll investigate further to see if there is some remnant of sparse-checkout somehow.

[romkatv]

The ERROR messages in the logs are quite clear. Your repo has extensions.worktreeconfig extension. Once you remove it and restart zsh, gitstatusd should work.

[romkatv]

Closing as Won’t Fix.

[Mellbourn]

I've made a new clone and there things work fine, gonna go with that instead. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[romkatv]

This means the new clone doesn’t have the extension. I don’t think there is any mystery here.
