Bug: Squad init in existing project marks all files as new in GIT

[bpikaar]

In my existing project I installed squad, which has files for an existing web app.

 npm i @bradygaster/squad-cli

after that I initialized squad

 npx squad init   

After this all the files in my folder are marked as new, but the branch was up-to-date. I don't have branches, just pushed to main.

I thought about why this happened and i think it is because of my folder structure. I have a bit a an unconventional repo. The main folder (which is the root of the repo) has multiple project folders. All these folders have package.json and node_modules. Maybe this caused the error?

I deleted the entire repo and cloned it again. I added squad to a subfolder and did the squad init again. Again all the files that where in my repo are marked as new.

I just tried to reproduce it in an empty folder with the same setup, but it didn't occur this time. The setup is:

• parent folder
  • .git
  • project folder
    • index.html
    • app.js
    • node_modules
    • package.json
