Failed import due to freeze resulting in bare repository #784

I encountered something very similar to this last week, and it has only happened once. To work around the problem, we pushed the "starter code" repo into the student assignment repo. |
Same here -- very frustrating, as the students think they've done something wrong, and try all sorts of random solutions, when actually it is a github bug. For us it seems to happen maybe 3-5% of the time or more; then the teacher has to manually push the starter code into the students repo -- a huge hassle in a class of 200. |
Same here. The problem does not seem to be reproducible but has occurred for ~10 out of 60 students. Not sure about the following: |
Same thing with me throughout the semester, however, this seems to have been a lot more frequent than 1 in 6. Some students seemed to have been unluckier than others. I tried deleting the repos and asking the students to try again, only to see the same thing happen over and over. |
Duplicate of #772. Thanks for the reports everyone. I'll try to get time this week to dig into this. |
I'm today seeing this error with an assignment. |
From a user with approx 250 students, making weekly assignments.
