Thanks Tobias you are correct. My project is ~/projects/shinyln
I repeat your suggestion of cloning a second copy into ~temp/shinyln, cd, git reset etc. I then compare the contents of the two 'clone' directories, see below looks like the difference, other than make/git related files are four empty directories doc, scripts, shinyln and tests, so appears empty directories are not allowed? ---------------------------------------------------------------- Hi Simon, mbc@HP8300:~/projects/shinyln$ git --no-pager log -1 --oneline git status 9f06568 (HEAD -> master, origin/master) removed chmod statement On branch master Your branch is up to date with 'origin/master'. nothing to commit, working tree clean ----------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks! ================================================================= output of find /home/mbc/projects/shinyln -type d -printf "%P\n" | sort > file1 find /home/mbc/temp/shinyln -type d -printf "%P\n" | sort | diff - file1 mbc@HP8300:~/temp$ cat file1 autom4te.cache build-aux doc .git .git/branches .git/hooks .git/info .git/logs .git/logs/refs .git/logs/refs/heads .git/logs/refs/remotes .git/logs/refs/remotes/origin .git/objects .git/objects/02 .git/objects/07 .git/objects/09 .git/objects/0a .git/objects/0c .git/objects/0d .git/objects/10 .git/objects/12 .git/objects/15 .git/objects/17 .git/objects/18 .git/objects/1a .git/objects/1e .git/objects/20 .git/objects/23 .git/objects/26 .git/objects/29 .git/objects/2e .git/objects/31 .git/objects/32 .git/objects/36 .git/objects/3e .git/objects/40 .git/objects/48 .git/objects/4c .git/objects/66 .git/objects/68 .git/objects/69 .git/objects/6d .git/objects/72 .git/objects/75 .git/objects/76 .git/objects/7f .git/objects/81 .git/objects/82 .git/objects/84 .git/objects/85 .git/objects/89 .git/objects/8b .git/objects/8d .git/objects/9b .git/objects/9e .git/objects/9f .git/objects/a1 .git/objects/a3 .git/objects/a4 .git/objects/aa .git/objects/b0 .git/objects/b5 .git/objects/b7 .git/objects/ba .git/objects/bc .git/objects/c8 .git/objects/ce .git/objects/d3 .git/objects/d4 .git/objects/d6 .git/objects/d8 .git/objects/d9 .git/objects/df .git/objects/e6 .git/objects/e9 .git/objects/ea .git/objects/f2 .git/objects/ff .git/objects/info .git/objects/pack .git/refs .git/refs/heads .git/refs/remotes .git/refs/remotes/origin .git/refs/tags scripts shinyln tests On Tue, Jan 4, 2022 at 3:21 PM zimoun <zimon.touto...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi Mortimer, > > On Tue, 04 Jan 2022 at 14:48, Mortimer Cladwell <mbcladw...@gmail.com> > wrote: > > > mbc@HP8300:~/projects$ cd shinyln/ > > mbc@HP8300:~/projects/shinyln$ guix hash -S nar -x . > > 1ykbpz6pqx0bkvfp3c60qfb9r0xvpmrs0ldlxm2qw0zd8f67lmaj > > Could you report: > > git --no-pager log -1 --oneline > git status > > ? > > > FYI from > https://guix.gnu.org/manual/en/html_node/Invoking-guix-hash.html > > at the bottom explaining --exclude-vcs: > > > > $ git clone http://example.org/foo.git > > $ cd foo > > $ guix hash -rx . > > > > Suggests (to me) that you go inside the directory to calculate hash, > > though as above seems not to matter. > > Yes, indeed.
