error: invalid path 'experiments/results/correlation_dotprods/_LabelMe/all_results?.csv'

I have the same issue on Windows 10. This error happens immediately after running git clone and doesn't involve the setup.py script.

(Swig is installed and on the path. Numpy is also installed via pip.)

You can inspect what was checked out with 'git status'
and retry with 'git restore --source=HEAD :/'

The cloned bolt directory is completely empty. Running git status in bolt/ reveals that somehow the repository has cannibalized itself: Every file is marked as deleted.

'?' is a reserved character on windows systems; since this file has a question mark it's invalid. SO says there's no way around this except to use a different os. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/36827671/git-clone-displaying-errors-and-marking-files-as-deleted-in-windows-10

I'd clone this repo inside a unix based docker container and develop in that container.
