So I am having some major issues with Visual Studio 2022 and a GitHub-forked repository. The repository is under my own GitHub account – the same one as on my VS. The problem doesn’t seem to come directly from GitHub, as I can edit it in a virtual Codespace and push/pull commits. But when I cloned the same repo and opened it up in VS, I saw that all files have a blue padlock icon next to them with the description of “Checked-In”. Also, all files are marked as read-only, and I can’t edit anything in them.
Although VS seems to be connected just fine to Git, because all branches are shown, origin points are set right, and fetching/sync commands seem to work. When I run the gut status command, everything seems to be normal there, too. I don’t really know what else to do, nor does ChatGPT.
git status
On branch beta
Your branch is up to date with 'origin/beta'.
nothing to commit, working tree clean
What I have already tried:
1. Deleting the whole .vs folder
2. reinstalling Git on my PC
3. reinstalling VS2022 with all needed add-ons
