oh-my-fish: repository 'default' does not exist

I cannot get around this error:

@oranja I am in Ubuntu shell on Windows 10 and my git version is git version 2.13.0

Uninstalled fish and omf, and deleted manually /home/user/.local/share/omf
Reinstalled fish with PPA
fish --version returns fish, version 2.6.0
git config --global core.autocrlf false
mkdir code && chmod 644 code/
cd code
git clone https://github.com/oh-my-fish/oh-my-fish.git
cd oh-my-fish/bin/install --offline
PROFIT: Got my omf working!

I think step.4 solved my problem.

I need core.autocrlf set to true, because rest of the team is on UNIX systems. Let’s see how it will work for me. I will keep you updated on my experience. Thank you for your help. I 💚 omf

@odGit @oranja Oh!!! It all makes sense now!

We have a .gitattributes on the oh-my-fish repo, but not the packages-main repo. So since core.autocrlf was enabled, all occurrences of \n get turned into \r\n.

Then, when the installer installs the default plugins, it tries to install the theme named default. So it looks up a package named default with type = theme, but all it found is default with type = theme\r (notice the \r) and assumes the word default must be a URL and not a package name. So then it tells Git to clone default, which of course fails.

The fix is to add a .gitattributes file to the packages-main repo also. I’ll do that now.
