how to terminate git process which is running currently?

$ git commit -m "45"
fatal: Unable to create 'F:/SoftifyBD/Projects/proj-4/CMS_Latest/contentmanagementsystem/.git/index.lock': File exists.

Another git process seems to be running in this repository, e.g. an editor opened by 'git commit'. Please make sure all processes are terminated then try again. If it still fails, a git process may have crashed in this repository earlier: remove the file manually to continue. enter image description here

Solution

  • When I faced the same problem. I found a solution and it is
    rm -f ./.git/index.lock
    Please, try it. Thank you...
