running git status in the vendors dir:

# On branch master
# Changes not staged for commit:
#   (use "git add <file>..." to update what will be committed)
#   (use "git checkout -- <file>..." to discard changes in working directory)
#
#       modified:   tests/Fixtures/Integration/set/@PSR2_whitespaces.test-out.php
#       modified:   tests/Fixtures/Integration/set/@Symfony_whitespaces.test
#       modified:   tests/Fixtures/Integration/set/@Symfony_whitespaces.test-out.php

Any idea why do we have such test files in the vendor dir.

The problem occurs when running composer in no interaction mode:

composer update --no-interaction

The workaround that I’ve found so far is to discard all changes on vendor in composer.json:

    "config": {
        "discard-changes": true
    },

I had this error which I resolved by just deleting vendor directory and ‘make composer install’

Don’t think this is a bug with us tbh.
