Adding existing repo via New Repository method yields error

Opened this issue · 0 comments

I tried to add existing locals repos with existing non-Github remotes via two methods. The first was via "Scan for Repositories" as I thought that would be the preferred method. The problem I ran into using that method is discussed in the issue at #6. The other way I tried to add the repo is via the "New Repository" button. Attempting to add the repo via this method resulted in the error message below.

Steps performed

  • click "New Repository"
  • add "Name" and select Local Path - I had to remove the name from the local path as it was automatically getting appended to the path (another reason I assume this is not the intended way to add existing repos)
  • click "Create Repository"
  • receive following error message:
