Snapcraft not finding git info

When building my snap, I get the following message:

:: Building flutter tool… :: Resolving dependencies… :: Downloading packages… :: Got dependencies. :: Failed to find the latest git commit date: VersionCheckError: Command exited with code 128: git -c log.showSignature=false log 8cd19e509d6bece8ccd74aef027c4ca947363095 -n 1 --pretty=format:%ad --date=iso :: Standard out: :: Standard error: fatal: bad object 8cd19e509d6bece8ccd74aef027c4ca947363095 :: :: Returning 1969-12-31 18:00:00.000 instead.

The build continues, but just wondering if anyone knows why this is happening? I am using git on the project, and the git files are there.

Many thanks, MIke

Can you provide the full log output?

It looks like Facing issue when running "Flutter doctor" command in cmd · Issue #117822 · flutter/flutter · GitHub.

I would enter a shell with --debug and try to make it succeed manually, then add an override-build script, probably along the lines of:

override-build: |
  git config safe.directory ...
  craftctl default

Hi mr_cal,

Thank you for taking the time to try and help. I have linked the log file below from the package build if you want to take a look. I am new to creating snaps, so bear with me. I will take a look at that link and see if your suggestion will fix it. It always seems to fall back to permissions on everything. :slight_smile:

Thanks, MIke

Hopefully the advice and link fixes it, as I don’t see the error in that build log.
