Of the SelectTutorial forms, selecting a tutorial via the TutorialSelect dropdown captures all of the project files from the tutorial, including their .git/ folder, circumventing this issue. But the File and URL options require the user to git init before they initiate the tutorial with the Start button.
We really should document this in the UI and documentation, or allow .git/ directory to exist when firing up CodeRoad--however, I could see the latter being problematic for the same reasons described in #627.
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
To run a CodeRoad tutorial, the documentation instructs you to open an empty project.
If the folder already contains a
.git/
directory, the tutorial errors after hitting Start.If you forget to
git init
, the tutorial will silently fail.Describe the solution you'd like
We could either:
git init
in the steps leading up to running a tutorial..git/
directory to exist when opening an empty folder.git init
if it is not.Describe alternatives you've considered
TBD
