There was a problem hiding this comment.
doesn't work:
we might have to check git settings and registry (via reg query HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\FileSystem /v LongPathsEnabled or powershell Get-ItemProperty -Path "HKLM:\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\FileSystem" -Name "LongPathsEnabled")
or we need to git add the file (--f --dry-run)
I also found precedent on github for just checking if path > 240 or > 255 (the android gradle plugin does this for example)
