fatal: unable to access 'H:\/.config/git/config': Invalid argument [Git on Windows 7]

Question

I get this error when opening a git repository:

fatal: unable to access \'H:/.config/git/config\': Invalid argument

Where in git is this path being pulled from?<

Answer 1

net delete is not a must.

First check HOME setting, then change HOME and HOMEDRIVE to a existing dir.

c:\git\selenium-automation>set HOME
HOME=U:\
HOMEDRIVE=U:
HOMEPATH=\
HOMESHARE=\\XX

then change HOME and HOMEDRIVE by

set HOME=c:\tmp
set HOMEDRIVE=C:

c:\git\selenium-automation>set HOME

HOME=c:\tmp
HOMEDRIVE=c:
HOMEPATH=\
HOMESHARE=\\XX
