fredrik-jarnbrost · 2019-05-16T08:00:52Z

I get this when I do npm install. I'm happy to provide more info if needed.

same as you

Irislm · 2019-05-16T08:30:00Z

Try it rm -rf node_modules/*/.git/. It works for me!

jqn · 2019-05-16T08:53:49Z

Thanks @Irislm I ran the command and it fixed the issue. I'm still wondering what caused the issue on the first place.

fredrik-jarnbrost · 2019-05-16T09:49:17Z

@Irislm Thanks for the work-around. I edited the issue to specify when this happens

pcowgill · 2019-05-16T13:59:19Z

@fredrik-jarnbrost @a379351939 @Irislm @jqn FYI it's fixed in this commit 1f8d389

See this comment in another issue #69 (comment)

fredrik-jarnbrost · 2019-05-16T14:29:14Z

Oh didn't find that issue when I searched, sorry. Thanks for the quick help!

Closing this, duplicate of #69

Thanks @Irislm I ran the command and it fixed the issue. I'm still wondering what caused the issue on the first place.

where to run??

jqn · 2019-05-20T04:48:59Z

@shadyo7 run it in the root of your project where the node_modules directory is located

saeedhemmati · 2019-05-31T18:13:33Z

Also me!

drpiou · 2019-06-18T10:03:19Z

Thanks it work for me

LeRoyJulian · 2019-06-28T07:34:16Z

If you have this problem with Homebrew : rm -rf /usr/local/lib/node_modules/*/.git/ then update again.

malikkurosaki · 2019-06-29T09:29:37Z

@shadyo7 run it in the root of your project where the node_modules directory is located
i run it in root files but get this

'rm' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

Hi!
I've got the same problem with @tensorflow/tfjs package.
When I install it locally everything works, problem appears when I deploy it on CircleCi -> Google Kubernetess.

I get this err:
npm ERR! path /root/repo/node_modules/@tensorflow/tfjs-converter
npm ERR! code EISGIT
npm ERR! git /root/repo/node_modules/@tensorflow/tfjs-converter: Appears to be a git repo or submodule.

any ideas?

I'm having this problem too. Have you tried manually removing its .git and seeing if your app still works?

rmsparajuli · 2019-09-09T07:39:06Z

this isn't best way but it works.

remove package-lock.json
and then npm install

manjunath1998 · 2019-09-10T07:12:17Z

rm -rf node_modules/*/.git/
this is a command right

Atomo87 · 2019-09-20T19:43:00Z

Manually delete the seen react-native-safe-area module, and then run npm.
This will update the module. This happens when there is a mismatch between the react-native-safe-view-area module and the module it intends to install. Example, react-native-gesture-manipulator.

ravics09 · 2019-12-09T07:22:54Z

rm -rf node_modules/*/.git/

Its worked for me.

FredericoVieira · 2019-12-13T02:00:14Z

I have to do this two steps to work!

Try it rm -rf node_modules/*/.git/. It works for me!
remove package-lock.json

Thanks!

Zoha131 · 2019-12-14T18:09:01Z

rm -rf node_modules/*/.git/

1m silence for the windows users like me. 🙈 🙉 🙊

iahmedbacha · 2019-12-15T09:39:55Z

If still have this problem try:
rm -rf node_modules/**/*/.git/

ilibilibom · 2019-12-16T08:55:19Z

I tried

rm -rf node_modules/*/.git/

and still getting the same error ....
I don't seem to have a .git directory in

node_modules/react-native-safe-area-view

iahmedbacha · 2019-12-17T01:27:35Z

I tried
rm -rf node_modules/*/.git/
and still getting the same error ....
I don't seem to have a .git directory in
node_modules/react-native-safe-area-view

Try to clone the repo again (in another directory) and run npm install.

It will not effect your project since you are just cloning it again.
Before you do that try to go to "./node_modules/react-native-safe-area-view/" and delete ./git directory manually.

You can see in my first comment that I don't have a .got directory

kirankbee · 2020-01-19T20:30:22Z

i manually deleted .git folder and all the references to git in package.json
located under react_native_safe_area_view folder, it worked for me .

VishwaNandhu · 2020-01-30T05:42:49Z

i manually remove
node_modules and package-lock.json
then run command
npm cache clean --force
npm install --save
its work for me .
