Hey everyone,
I hope you’re all doing well! I’m pretty new to DVC and have been trying to set up my first project, but I’ve hit a bit of a snag. When I try to initialize a DVC repository using dvc init, I keep getting the following error:
ERROR: failed to initialize dvc repo
I’ve double-checked that I’m in the correct directory and that Git is installed and configured properly. I even made sure I have the necessary permissions, but no luck so far.
Here are a few details about my setup:
- Operating System: Windows 10
- DVC Version: 2.10.0
- Git Version: 2.39.1
When I was searching about this I came across these resources Troubleshooting msbi developer career dvc init fails with ERROR: unexpected error - [WinError 2] The system cannot find the file specified: '.dvc\\.gitignore' · Issue #4683 · iterative/dvc · GitHub based on them I’ve tried searching through the docs and forums, but haven’t found a solution that works for me yet. Has anyone else encountered this issue? Any suggestions on what I might be missing or doing wrong?
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide! Looking forward to getting this sorted out and diving deeper into DVC.
Thanks and Regards 
Elena
