fatal: detected dubious ownership in repository at

hello, i've a message, when i lauch update.bat on stable-diffusion-webui-forge ,

fatal: detected dubious ownership in repository at

it seems that this problem has been raised before, but no one has given me a solution.
thanks for your understanding

Try the suggested solution here. The issue is caused by using different Windows user accounts for the installation and the update process.
I expect your error message were similar to the one mentioned in the issue I linked to above:

fatal: detected dubious ownership in repository at 'E:/webui_forge/webui/repositories/stable-diffusion-webui-assets'
'E:/webui_forge/webui/repositories/stable-diffusion-webui-assets' is owned by:
'S-1-5-21-4103663134-3917249824-2383825132-1001'
but the current user is:
'S-1-5-21-1000256838-1448725724-1571719183-1001'

Those 2 long strings starting with S-1-5-21 are called SIDs or Security Identifiers, and basically says that the installation was done with one user account (Windows domain account since it is S-1-5-21) and the file ownership were set to that user, while the update was attempted with a different domain account.

thanks very much for response i have this message!:

Press any key to continue . . .

i try the method erase the folder like the example you send, but that does'nt work.

WIN 10, nvidia 3070. 24 GB RAM

Erasing files is not the point, my friend. the point is to ensure current user has ownership.
It seems that you downloaded the compressed package. In this case, it is best to follow the tutorial on this website to modify the ownership of the webui_forge_cu121_torch231 folder. Remember to Replace owner on sub containers and objects. How good is MS at hide and seek?
Of course, you can also execute git config --global --add safe.directory xxxx in the error. If an error is reported again, check whether the returned command is different, execute it again, and repeat. This is a simple but dirty solution that I don't really like. If you use git like this for a few months, the .gitconfig file will become a mess.

thanks for your help. i change the root on another disk and it's work, i think the another disk was corrupted.
you can close , it's done.
I wish you a happy day, see you

@kainaschatte , sorry for late response, been busy. I see in the error message you posted this:
'Y:/forgeflux/webui_forge_cu121_torch231/webui' is on a file system that doesnot record ownership
Is this a USB disk/pendrive or similar formatted with FAT32? If so, that would be the cause here since FAT32 file systems don't support more advanced file properties like file ownership that you have with NTFS.
