TracError: foo.git does not appear to be a Git repository


Registered a new Git repositoy via web interface at Trac, but it can't sync.

Issuing the suggested trac-admin command for resyncing says that the repository does not appear to be a Git repository.


Solution

  • Check if the repository path has an space at the end of it. This was causing the problem for me.

    For example, the repository path was "C:/foo/bar.git" and I've accidentaly typed it with a space at the end: "C:/foo/bar.git ". So Trac couldn't retrieve the git repository.

    Removed the space and it worked fine.
