Hello, On windows 7 and windows 10 it is illegal to start a filename with "aux".
Example: new@new-PC MINGW64 /e/SourceCode/LinuxKernel/linux (master) $ git checkout master error: invalid path 'drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nvkm/subdev/i2c/aux.c' error: invalid path 'drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nvkm/subdev/i2c/aux.h' error: invalid path 'include/soc/arc/aux.h' Link to youtube video that shows the problem at timestamp 8 minutes and 20 seconds: https://youtu.be/n15JnFgaxKs How can I still checkout most of the files, is it possible to somehow just skip over these 3 files ? Or are you telling me the Linux Kernel source is now stuck forever inside this Repository and it cannot be extracted anymore ?! If so that is horrorific and exactly one or my worries with using systems like git.
