title: Git "fatal: Unable to read current working directory: No such file or directory" in existing repo
body: <p>I have a repo on a network drive with a proper <code>.git</code> folder etc.</p>
  
  <p>I am able to do everything I want with <code>git version 2.20.1.windows.1</code> on my machine (push/pull/branches etc.)</p>
  
  <p>I am now trying to use the exact same folder on another machine with <code>git version 2.25.0.windows.1</code>.</p>
  
  <p>The remote repo sits on AWS CodeCommit and I've verified that I can connect to it using the steps outlined <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/codecommit/latest/userguide/setting-up-ssh-unixes.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">here</a> from the new machine.</p>
  
  <p>No matter which git operation I try on the new machine, I get <code>fatal: Unable to read current working directory: No such file or directory</code>. This includes trying to clone a repo into a new folder as well, not just operations on the existing repo/folder.</p>
  
  <p>I can navigate to the folder and list its contents</p>

  <p>Am I missing something obvious ?</p>
