submodules git visual studio "fatal: unexpected sequence in commit output" can they just checkin?


Any reason why git submodules in Visual Studio 2017 just don't want to checkin? I keep getting

fatal: unexpected sequence in commit output

Seems like sometimes they DO checkin, but most of the time they don't. Am I misunderstanding something?

Solution

  • In my case the problem was that not all the files had been saved when trying to commit.

    This showed me where to look.

    "I got this exception when the file with changes I was attempting to commit was not saved"
