[Bug]: Watch mode throws error.

[psznm]

Version

29.5.0

Steps to reproduce

1. npm init (all defaults)
2. npm i jest@29.5.0
3. ./node_modules/jest/bin/jest.js --watch

Expected behavior

Should start watch mode with "No tests found"

Actual behavior

Determining test suites to run...

  ● Test suite failed to run

thrown: [Error]

Additional context

The very same happens when running ./node_modules/jest/bin/jest.js --onlyChanged

When I add current directory ".", ./node_modules/jest/bin/jest.js . --onlyChanged seems to work, but ./node_modules/jest/bin/jest.js . --watch starts the watch mode correctly but then after few seconds gives me the very same error.

This issue is not present in jest 28, where it tells me it needs git repository and with initialized git repository it works. Initialized git repository seems to make no difference with 29. Presence/absence of test suites also seems to make no difference.

    OS: Linux 5.4 Ubuntu 20.04.6 LTS (Focal Fossa)

Could it be that you are hitting #14046?

[psznm]

Yes, that's it! I removed sl package and watch mode now works.

Wow, I'm so lucky I ran across this! I installed sl as a joke a few months ago and have been pulling my hair out at jest not working for forever
