Error in syncing to Pavlovia

Online experiments
1

Hi everyone!

A few days ago, I created an experiment on Pavlovia using Builder. Today, I made some changes, but I wasn’t able to sync them with Pavlovia. I already cleared the cache. Then, I deleted the experiment and recreated it from scratch. However, the following error appears:

Traceback (most recent call last):

  cmdline: C:\Program Files\PsychoPy\MinGit\cmd\git.exe commit -m Push initial project files
  stdout: 'On branch master

Any ideas on how to fix this issue?

Hello

Delete the hidden folder and file .git. Notice that this deletes all connections to your remote repository. See for instance here Nothing to commit, working tree clean · community · Discussion #23135 · GitHub
