fatal: unable to checkout working tree
warning: Clone succeeded, but checkout failed.
You can inspect what was checked out with 'git status'
and retry with 'git restore --source=HEAD :/'
When cloning the repository on Windows, Git fails to check out the working tree because two files in the examples/ folder contain the * (asterisk) character, which is not supported in NTFS filenames.
to bypass can clone without examples folder:
git clone -n https://github.com/morphicfilms/frames-to-video.git
cd frames-to-video
git config core.protectNTFS false
git ls-tree -r HEAD --name-only | grep -v '^examples/' > filelist.txt
git checkout HEAD -- $(cat filelist.txt)
or propose fix:
Rename or remove the offending files (replace * with x or _)
