Hi!
I am trying to sync my project to Pavlovia (I am using PsychoPy v.2024.2.4), but an error occurs during the process, preventing the operation. The error indicates that my project folder (/Users/owner/Documents/IAT1) is inside another folder managed by Git, which is not allowed. As a result, PsychoPy is unable to properly initialize the local repository or complete the synchronization with Pavlovia.
The error is as follows:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File “/Applications/PsychoPy.app/Contents/Resources/lib/python3.10/psychopy/app/builder/builder.py”, line 1612, in onPavloviaSync
File “/Applications/PsychoPy.app/Contents/Resources/lib/python3.10/psychopy/app/pavlovia_ui/project.py”, line 854, in syncProject

File “/Applications/PsychoPy.app/Contents/Resources/lib/python3.10/psychopy/projects/pavlovia.py”, line 1033, in repo
AttributeError: The requested local path for project
‘/Users/owner/Documents/IAT1’
sits inside another folder, which git will not permit. You might like to set the project local folder to be
‘/Users/owner’
To try to resolve the issue, I have renamed the folder, the experiment, and the project, as well as moved the folder to a new location, but the error persists.
