Project works when running in builder but I am getting this error when trying to push it online. Any ideas on how to resolve?

Description of the problem:

Hello Grace

do you have a * as part of the folder-name PROJECTS? I am surprised that this works because * is a reserved character in many circumstances and should not be used in filenames (and folder-names). You also might want to get rid of the spaces in the file(folder)names. While spaces in file(folder)names work on your OS-system, there is no guarantee they will work on another OS-system. The error tells you that you try to sync a folder that has already a .git-folder in it. Move your project to another directory and try to sync again.

Best wishes Jens
