CRITICAL ISSUE: Clone a Git Repo doesn't work

[fahadpatel-nc]

Describe the bug

When I click on the "Clone a Git Repo" option in the Bolt DIY local instance running on my Mac, nothing happens. The screen remains unresponsive, and no files are loaded into the workbench. Previously this feature used to work, loading all files to workbench. Someone please help me fix this issue, it is very critical for me to have this feature.

Link to the Bolt URL that caused the error

http://localhost:5173

Steps to reproduce

Setup and start bolt locally
Click on Clone a Git Repo
Wait for the files to load in the workbench
Nothing happening on frontend as if the screen is stuck

Expected behavior

Load the Github repo to workbench, ask to do changes in any files and it should work as expected.

@wonderwhy-er @thecodacus Please help out here, This is really important.

[thecodacus]

is it a private repo?
if yes have you specified the git access token in the setting tab?
what is the repo url?
are you using the ".git" url ?

[fahadpatel-nc]

@thecodacus I tried with both a public and a private repository (with my PAT set in the settings), but I'm encountering the same issue on both. I also tried using both the '.git' URL and the direct web URL, but neither worked.

I just tested and on main import does not work indeed for me
Was importing my repo
https://github.com/wonderwhy-er/frontend-openai-testing
In UI nothing happens, we need to add some kind of loading/failure indicator, will investigate a bit

[wonderwhy-er]

One more weird thing that is happening is this locally for me

[wonderwhy-er]

Ok interesting
in db.ts
indexedDB.open('boltHistory', 1); fails

because I have version 2

May be some PR caused that...

[wonderwhy-er]

I deleted local indexdb and that made import work again

So I now wonder what caused index db to go to version 2

[wonderwhy-er]

You need to go to developer tools -> application -> indexdb -> boltHistry
In there you should see version like on screenshot

If its not 1 then it is broken like for me, I just deleted database and it works now
Export chats you care about though

Found another issue, this

It seems that isomorphic git we are using using cors proxy
Could be that we are hitting some kind of rate limits

i was thinking the same. It sure is possible
