Problem Description: Compilation results in an error labeled 'fatal' However, compilation appears to be successful.

Detailed problem description:

Compiler Error: fatal: not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git

Sketch: Simple Blink.ino will produce the error.

Additional information:

This error was mentioned in posts by myself and others, in passing. I felt that it should get its own issue so that it does not get overlooked. Since compilation does occur, this is somewhat cosmetic but it would be confusing to new users, especially since it says 'fatal'. I believe this has something to do with how the change was released through github.

Hey,

Can you please try removing this line?

Arduino/platform.txt

Line 95 in dde76d1

recipe.hooks.prebuild.10.pattern="{runtime.tools.python3.path}/python3" "{runtime.tools.makecorever}" --build_path "{build.path}" --platform_path "{runtime.platform.path}" --version "unix-{version}"

I think this line was supposed to be removed by the release script, but the pattern is different now:

Arduino/package/build_boards_manager_package.sh

Line 97 in dde76d1

$SED 's/recipe.hooks.core.prebuild.pattern.*//g' |\
