Error:
Solution:
The error message indicates that Git detected dubious ownership in the repository at /opt/lampp/htdocs/holidaylandmark/events
. This happens when Git thinks there’s a potential security issue with the file ownership, especially when using shared directories or different user accounts.
To resolve this, you attempted to mark the directory as safe using the git config
command, but there was an issue with how the command was entered.
Correct Command:
git config --global --add safe.directory /opt/lampp/htdocs/holidaylandmark/events
Make sure there are no extra spaces or arguments, as the command requires exactly two arguments: the safe.directory
and the path.
Explanation:
--global
: Applies this configuration to your user globally.--add
: Adds this directory to the list of safe directories.safe.directory
: The Git configuration setting./opt/lampp/htdocs/holidaylandmark/events
: The path to your Git repository.
After running the corrected command, you should be able to perform your Git operations without the “detected dubious ownership” warning.
