Repository navigation
Stopped working with pre-commit #1159
Description
I keep getting the following error when trying to use pre-commit codespell hook on my repository (I was able to use it a few weeks ago). I've tried reinstalling pre-commit, upgrading git, as well as cloning my repository again. Is anyone having the same issue?

Hi @x249wang ,
Where did the hook come from?
I can see @marco-c added stuff in #1117 referencing https://pre-commit.com/ but we don't seem to have made it into the hook list ( https://pre-commit.com/hooks.html via https://github.com/pre-commit/pre-commit.github.io/blob/real_master/all-repos.yaml ).
The issue looks to be because @lucasdemarchi had some branches with slashes in the name, which is confusing Windows as it sees them as folder paths *although they're all a few years old, so I don't know why it's suddenly got upset):
https://github.com/codespell-project/codespell/branches/all
It looks like one was merged successfully so we could just delete it, the one one got closed, so can probably go, but we ought to check with him.
If you can get pre-commit to only check-out master, then I think it would all just work.

See also discussion in pre-commit/pre-commit#1058 .

Thanks for the investigation @peternewman, I agree those look like cruft so I've deleted them. @lucasdemarchi if you need the branches I do have local copies I could push to your fork.
(As an aside, it's pretty common for repos to have
/in PR names since often there ismaint/X.XXormaintenance/X.XXso I assume they'll have to fix this upstream at some point.)peternewman commentedon Jun 18, 2019
Thanks @larsoner . Agreed, although as they mentioned in the other issue, it looks like a bug in Git on Windows not handling slashes if anything.

It's now on the website via pre-commit/pre-commit.com#237

I mailed the git mailing list, they helpfully pointed out that it's not the directory but the name "aux":

That fixed the issue for me. Thank you!
