Please check that this issue hasn't been reported before.
- I searched previous Bug Reports didn't find any similar reports.
Expected Behavior
I just tried to make a backup of my vault but got the following git error: fatal: Unable to process path
Looks like the issue is that using the %title%
variable for a will save even if the path exceeds what windows will allow?
Current behaviour
Notes with a title that exceed the windows character limit save but pose issues for git and potentially other things, for example when I tried renaming the file I suddenly had two versions in my vault
Steps to reproduce
- Make your readable article note template title this:
%title% (Readable Article)
- Try to save this article
- Go to the created file in the windows explorer and try renaming it, which will be difficulty without first trimming it
Which Operating Systems are you using?
- Android
- iPhone/iPad
- Linux
- macOS
- Windows
Obsidian Version
1.6.7
Plugin Version
0.5.0
Checks
- I have tried it with all other plugins disabled and the error still occurs
Possible solution
I'd be fine if the title was just cut off to always fit the limit
