Body

Hi all,
If I clone this (https://github.com/johnwinans/2063-Z80-cpm.git) github repro under Windows 10 with TortoiseGit or any other (CLI) tool it will clone it, but the creation of the working copy failed (folder is empty) with following message:

git.exe clone --progress -v "https://github.com/johnwinans/2063-Z80-cpm.git" "D:\Z80 Retro SBC\2063-Z80-cpm"

You can inspect what was checked out with 'git status'
and retry with 'git restore --source=HEAD :/'

git did not exit cleanly (exit code 128) (3172 ms @ 23.11.2022 14:02:14)

git status shows me:

git restore --source=HEAD :/ returns with:
error: invalid path 'lib/prn.asm'

I fork the repro with the github webpage interface and then tried to clone my forked repro. It fails too.
Same with the github GUI tool (Windors program).

On a Linux system (I used a Raspberry Pi) all went well.
Do anyone know how / where the failure could be corrected?
Thanks Dirk!
