Save aviaryan/5413425 to your computer and use it in GitHub Desktop.

| This Text explains how to get around with "debug the state of this repo" Error. | |
| This text does not uses Cmd and Powershell, so it can be followed by a basic user. | |
| If you face the above Error in GitHub for Windows, then ------ | |
| * First Go to your local repo i.e. the repo's local folder. | |
| * Show Hidden Files via the Folder Options. | |
| * You will see a ".git" named folder in your local repo as soon as hidden files are set to be seen. | |
| * Delete That. | |
| * Now open Github for Windows. | |
| * Now, if you click on that repo in Local Tab, you should get an Error that repo cant be found. | |
| * | |
| * There it is, click on Re-Clone Repository button. | |
| * | |
| * The Repo will be downloaded again, with all commits and saved by default in -- My Documents/GitHib/<RepoName> | |
| Enjoy! |
Doesn't work for me too. Console commands show no error but desktop app just simply failed to sync.
I had the same issue as the commenters... git status shows no errors, I can update via git pull, but I can't use the desktop app... Something about SSH agent failing to load... Had to reinstall and reclone the git....
Sometimes when using git pull, it gives an error: "Permission denied". To fix this, make sure that no other processes are using those files (e.g. any watch compilers, text editors, web servers...)
Check https://github.com/settings/emails if your email is set to private. Revert to public if it is.
This showed up when apparently I had a file that was too large in my commit. When I opened up powershell and used git push, it revealed the source of the error. Though I imagine the github desktop app throws this message for a variety of reason
doesn´t work...
