Dotfiles |
If your codespace fails to pick up configuration settings from dotfiles, you should work through the following debugging steps.
-
Enable dotfiles by selecting Automatically install dotfiles in your personal {% data variables.product.prodname_github_codespaces %} settings.
-
Check
/workspaces/.codespaces/.persistedshare/dotfilesto see if your dotfiles were cloned.- If your dotfiles were cloned, try manually re-running your install script to verify that it is executable.
- If your dotfiles were not cloned, check
/workspaces/.codespaces/.persistedshare/EnvironmentLog.txtto see if there was a problem cloning them.
-
Check
/workspaces/.codespaces/.persistedshare/creation.logfor possible issues. For more information, see Creation logs.
If the configuration from your dotfiles is correctly picked up, but part of the configuration is incompatible with codespaces, use the $CODESPACES environment variable to add conditional logic for codespace-specific configuration settings.
