NiFi Filenames too long
Is it possible to use shorter folder and file names?
Linux/Unix like systems doesn't care but Windows is picky!
For example Git complains:
C:\Users\xxxxxxx\Local_Files\git>git clone
http://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator-nifi.git

Yes I know, I can change git folder location and hopefully this helps, but
still names together are rather long.
I am using Windows 7
Thanks

This time it worked like a charm.
Now I need to convince Eclipse also.

Thanks a lot!

Thank you for suggestions.
I already changed git folder to c:/git and clone succeeded, but checkout
failed.
I’ll start over and let’s see how this works out configuring git to accept
long filenames.

I used force to checkout
C:\git\incubator-nifi>git checkout develop --force

Branch develop set up to track remote branch develop from origin.

Import exiting projects to Eclipse didn’t succeed also.
But this more like Eclipse Maven plugin problem which sometimes get
confused.

I had the same issue - here is the stackoverflow thread I used to fix it:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/21123415/git-pull-aborted-with-error-filename-too-long
I recloned from scratch, worked like a charm. Refetching or checking out
another branch did not work.

Toivo,
I resolved this by configuring git to accept long filenames. You need to
make sure your version of mysysgit supports this config, because it's a
relatively new feature. 1.9.4.mysysgit.1 I believe.
git config --global core.longpaths true
or
git config --system core.longpaths true
If I remember correctly, I had to clone the repository again after this
config change.
Regards,
-- Mike

I used to have similar problems too, but after using "long path tool"
everything was solved. Try this software and you would be glad you did.
